Hope to get some recommendations and ideas on what is out there and hopefully best suited for my needs.
I have been setting up a membership based website, where there are free individual memberships (ie registered users) and memberships for businesses where they pay a joining fee, as well as a monthly subscription.
In the future I will also be looking at different levels of business membership with different rates and different site/file access etc.
I would like the store to handle the membership side so registered users (or business members) can purchase membership levels, pay the joining fee (or a fee to increase the membership level) and setup a monthly subscription (preferably all using either PayPal, or via bank transfer).
With this it would also ideally be able to handle discounts so that for a period of time I could offer to a select few, no joining fee, or half price joining fee etc. In addition to this, it would be great if it can also handle trial memberships so again, people that it is offered to can get say a 30-day free trial membership and then decide if they want to join & pay the fee & monthly subscription (possibly also discounted).
In addition to the above, and providing invoice/receipts online, I would like the module to be able to handle the sale of services... such as blocks of work (eg 10hrs of service paid upfront), or website & email hosting (subscriptions also but option of monthly or annual) where this can be listed on existing website pages I have outlining various services provided. Products will also be offered but services seem a bit more fidgety since some modules I have seen require thinks like model to be entered.
At the moment the one I am looking at most closely is the SDNstore, hoping to find out more on this and if it will meet most of my needs but if there is something else out there that I should use... or not use it would be great to hear!
Thanks
David
