[SOLVED] Can multiple payment solutions be used?

I am building a donation/membership site for the child abuse prevention council in Orange County, CA. Some monthly subscription/donation amounts are as small as $1 and need to be run through our Paypal micro-payment account. Others... the subscriptions/donations over $12/mo need to be routed through our other "normal" paypal account. 1. can 2 payment methods be used within the CBSubs application? and 2. Is there a way to automate which payment method is used based upon the subscription chosen?

Thank you very much,

Actually, already in CBSubs 1.0.3 which is released, there is an undocumented feature that you could use for this, provided you don't need to mix in the same purchase the 2 payment methods !

In plans and in gateway accounts you have a field present, called "owner" defaulting to 0.

When a user purchases a product (subscription, donation, or merchandise), CBSubs will offer as payment methods only gateways which have same "owner".

For a good chance of forward compatibility, you should use owner 0-3 for now. E.g. giving owner 0 to one plan and gateway account and owner 1 to the other plan and gateway account.

That should work fine for your case

Let us know how it works out for you

Note: this is an undocumented feature which will be evolving in future releases, so we can't grant backwards compatibility, but the current basic multi-account feature will be integrated into more advanced ones.

Thanks Beat... You guys are fantastic! Great products and wonderful support. I can't wait to use it!
Thanks again,
Tim
