Giray Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I just want to make sure I have not missed this anywhere. We agree that there is no way for a member to be paid directly for anything, whether using the core or any plugin, correct? Or did I miss it? Say in Classifieds, there is no way for someone who pays for something to pay the seller directly? Or in Clubs, there is no way for one club’s membership payments’ to go to one payment pipeline and another club’s payments’ to go to another? If I’m reading this correctly, ALL payments have to go through the board’s payment setup and then the board has to redistribute? If I am correct, is this something that will ever change? It seems completely impractical and limiting. Thoughts? Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have to handle manually with everything. Commerce already do that. Anyway, Michael seems to do it in his Donations app. You can try to contact him to see if he does the same as a new app or a custom job in Classifieds.

You think it’s nonsense to have a system whereby members could be paid directly for something ‘they’ are selling? This is the way it works on many platforms that have individual shops. You set up your shop, you get paid directly. Instead, with IPS, because there is no possibility for the member to set up a payment option, every payment has to transit through the board’s bank account (or paypal or whatever) and then get redistributed. That’s so much work, not to mention an accounting/taxation nightmare. Sorry, are you agreeing with me or disagreeing, not sure I understand.

Adriano Faria Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 It is on IPS environment as Commerce does it all. Best thing to do is not compare any other site with IPS; they have their own logic, which is weird most of the time, but it is as it is. They won’t change that. Best to try someone, like Michael, to develop it for you as a custom job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 As mentioned by Adriano, there is no way in which to do this at the present time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
