Setup or Joining Fee

Hi,
We want to be able to charge a setup/joining fee+annual subscription fee. On joining subscriber pays setup/joining fee of $100 and annual fee of $100 = total first year of $200..

However when the subscribers renews for the second and subsequent years they pay only $100 annual subscription.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Jeff

I got maybe a solution for you, but it does not seems very nice to the form

go to membership pro back-end > customs field >
add a name / titlle
choose field type: radio
description: 1 time setup fee
required : yes
fee field: yes
fee values: +100
down of the page> published
and hide on membership renewal: yes

Hi Jeff

The plan is onetime subscription plan or recurring subscription plan? If it is a recurring plan, there is a different (better setup):

1. Subscription Length: 1 year
2. Price: 100$
3. Trial duration: 1 year
4. Trial amount: 200$
4. Recurring subscription: Yes

With that setup, the fist year, subscribers will have to pay 200$. Then from second year, they will only have to pay 100$

Hi Tuan,
I have set this configuration up in the subscription plan but the trial amount is not showing in the Invoice or the instructions for offline payment.

Jeff

Sorry Jeff. I don't know how it should work. Could you please explain more details about how you want it to work so that Ic an look at it to see whether it is possible?

Regards,

Tuan

Offline payment isn't a recurring payment system so I'm not sure it will work!

Jeff - there is usually more than one way to achieve the same thing. In this case there are THREE!

1 The recurring subs option with a trial price - not a solution for you because it needs a recurring payment processor that can automatically handle billing.

2 The renewal price option: on Right Hand Side of the Plan set-up there is a Renewal Fee section. You'd set your Plan price to $200. You'd then set the renewal box to 1 year and a price of $100. I think this is the best option for you.

3 Coupons. You could set the price for the plan as $200 and send a coupon code out called RENEW16 which would take $100 off. In one respect that has a feel good factor for the customer "Oh look I saved $100..." but it might get shared with new subscribers and someone will forget to enter it and then complain and you can only offer one coupon so if you offer $10 off for early bird renewal before they expire or something they can't enter both.
