Creating different membership plans and setting up merchant accounts for users

[Gowtham Sivakumar]

Hi there,

I recently purchased the community tickets package and I must say this has been a really good purchase! But, I’m still confused with the documentation and I was wondering if you could point me to the right direction.

1. I want to create different membership plans for members (monthly membership based on how many tickets they can sell) and a free membership plan for participants. Could you please point me to how I can make this happen (so that I can keep a pricing card)

2. How do my paid members create merchant accounts to get paid? I’m still confused here. The registration page only contains basic information.

Thank you so much for the help! I would really appreciate it if this could be answered ASAP. Thanks!

Hi Gowtham,

I’m so glad to hear that you’re enjoying the plugin so far, thanks for reaching out!

Out of the box, our products do not create membership plans for members.  You can set up different roles and permissions so that different levels of users have different access to your site: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/admin-roles-and-permissions/

Also, this article can help to walk you through how to create a Members-Only Calendar: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/making-members-calendar/

You are welcome to add a third-party plugin that can create membership integration as well, although we do not endorse or discourage any particular plugin.

Feel free to vote on this suggestion here: https://tribe.uservoice.com/forums/195723-feature-ideas/suggestions/13391079-woocommerce-memberships-integration.  As you can see, others are interested in this idea and we consider implementing suggestions based on their popularity.

I hope this information helps to point you in the right direction.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions on this topic!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

Hi Jaime,

Thank you so much for the reply.

1. I’ll look into the resources for the membership plans!

2. I still don’t understand how my organisers get paid into their account. To clarify, suppose an organiser (a random member in the community) in my portal creates an event and people buy his tickets. How can he setup an account so that he automatically gets paid?

Hi Gowtham,

I’m glad that we were able to answer the first part of your question!

There are a few ways to set up payments so that your organizers can get paid.  The default option is to have all payments collected in WooCommerce and the site admin manually pays the organizers.  The other way is to enable split payments, so that organizers are automatically paid via PayPal with their ticket sales. You can read more about that here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/tracking-sales-getting-paid/

I hope this helps to answer your question, please let me know if you need any further clarification!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
