Hello,
I believe commerce in certain communities could be significantly improved with the following:
Products and subscriptions should be purchasable as a gift to other members.
Example 1: I want to gift 5 subscriptions to different random community members.
Example 2: I want to gift a shirt purchase to one specific community member
Subscriptions should have options for renewal periods that the customer can pick, along with optional discounts that admins can set.
Example 1: The default subscription state is $5/month, but I'd rather pay the whole yearly fee at once, at $60.
Example 2: As an admin I want to give a discount for people in Example 1, so that they are only charged $50/year.
By searching the forums, it's easy enough to come across similar requests.
Especially as someone that hosts a live stream oriented community, gift-based revenue is one of our major driving forces, but this isn't a thing on our website.
Thanks for reading and your consideration.
