Automatically set people up? - DNForum - Domain Sales, Domain Forum, Domain Appraisals, Domain Registrars

**Shommy** · 10-19-2009, 07:49 PM

So I help run a website where we get about 20+ subscriptions a month for 9.99, we currently have over 200 of these kind, now when they sign up and pay the 9.99, I have to manually set them up, we were wondering if there is a program, script, that will do this for us once they pay?

If you get what I mean?

Any ideas?

What exactly is the membership for? Access to a restricted area? Special content? Other service such as web hosting? Be more specific.

If the user pays via PayPal, you can set the successful payment page to redirect to your custom script that creates them a username/password on your site. Security could be an issue then so I would manually verify the accounts once in a while...

Paypal's IPN can do exactly what you are describing.

Paypal has the option for you to bill people for subscriptions which means they would pay the same amount each month automatically.

Yes, but he is looking to automatically set them up upon payment. IPN would work with subscriptions too.

Okay, it would be on a game server, we have forums which gives them "Supporter" status, then we have to set them up on the server (we use something called "Globalbans" but we will go over to "sourcebans" soon, we also need to go on a dedicated server and add a reserved slot to a eventscript addon. I'm sure we would need a database created, jdk I will reply to you later mate, thanks.

What specifically is the membership for, and what script are you using to maintain the site?

Most forums and CMS scripts out there have mods for paid members.
