EffectIO Paid Memberships Pro - Square Add On 1.0.1

Description:

The Square Add On extends Paid Memberships Pro by adding Square as a payment gateway to your list of accepted payment gateways. Once the add on is in place, Square appears alongside the other gateways your site accepts, so customers can choose Square when they pay for a membership at checkout. The add on brings Square into the payment step of a membership purchase, which is the role it fills within the plugin.

The scope of this add on is one-time payments. A checkout that charges a single payment for a membership level can be processed through Square, and the charge does not repeat. This makes the gateway a fit for membership sales where the customer pays once, rather than for plans that bill on an ongoing schedule. Membership levels that do not involve recurring billing fall within what the add on supports, and checkouts for those levels can run through the Square gateway.

Recurring subscriptions are not supported by this gateway. If a membership level is configured with recurring billing, checkouts for that level will be blocked when Square is the gateway in use. The same applies to discount codes that are set up with recurring billing, since checkouts for those configurations are blocked as well. This is worth keeping in mind when you decide which membership levels to offer through Square, so that recurring setups are not paired with this gateway.

This add on suits sites running Paid Memberships Pro that want to accept Square and whose membership offerings work on one-time payments. If your site needs to charge members on a repeating schedule, the documentation advises using a gateway that supports subscriptions instead, with Stripe named as an example of such a gateway. Full documentation for the Square Add On is available on the Paid Memberships Pro website, on the page for this add on.
