Offline

Offline payment plugin is a special plugin designed to handle not-online payments from your customers (for example: check payments, wire transfers).

Usual workflow of payment with this plugin:

• In signup form customer chooses an "offline" payment option;
• After filling-in signup form, user is redirected to a special configurable page with payment instructions;
  • Payment instructions include reference to current invoice# (for example: XH353)
• Customer sends a check, or wire transfer and specifies invoice# in comments.
• Site administrator receives a check (or wire transfer), login to aMember admin control panel, and search for given invoice#
• The invoice in aMember have status "Pending". Administrator clicks on "Add Payment" link in invoice and adds information about incoming payment;
• Customer account automatically becomes active, and customer receives welcome e-mail. Customer subscription starts on that date.

To configure offline plugin:

• Go to aMember CP -> Configuration -> Add-ons, enable "offline" payment plugin and click "Save"
• Go to aMember CP -> Configuration -> Setup/Configuration -> Offline, and configure the plugin.
