I've noticed the same issue. Extremely hit or miss.

There is usually an option for "test" or "sandbox" within your payment gateway provider. Just put the test payment info in your admin payment section and you should be fine. I'd prefer and on off switch built into IPS, but doubt we'll ever get that. So the previous option is the best option that I'm aware of.

I would love to help out!

Do that six times and you REALLY improve performance!

Thank you for listening to the community, it's a step in the right direction. Most of us have mentioned that we're okay with the price increase - it's part of life and we're willing to support IPS, because your product supports us. But we were not okay with the bombardment of changes all at once with no notice. That being said, I was 100% ready to jump ship and not re-up. Now, I think I can revisit the changes and probably be okay with making my payment in the next week.

When I deleted my payment info from the client area for https://invisioncommunity.com/clientarea/

I've used this in the past as well. Guess that settles it! I will NOT be renewing my IPS but will continue to use it as is. The real losers here are the independent developers who I've purchased from many times in the marketplace. I will revisit renewing once 4.7 or maybe 5.0 is released, as 4.6 was a yawn-fest in my opinion.

Would previously purchased Marketplace items still function as they did previously, just without future updates? And I would like to add that I would lose IPS spam fighting tools as well if I fail to renew.

And to add to this, the payment will be processed on Sep 23rd or 24th based on previous renewals. So actually, I have LESS THAN 9 days notice to prepare for a payment that is more than twice my anticipated renewal costs. 100% unacceptable!

Agreed. I get 14 days to pay $70 more and a yearly renewal instead of 6 months should I decide to stick with IPS.

Great, my renewal is in 14 days. 😞 It also is now a yearly price, wasn't it every 6 month before? This change has me seriously debating jumping ship, which is sad.
