Category Specific Payment Options

We offer about 7 different categories of classes.

But we need some help with one of them.

We are offering Homeschool Art classes and we are what’s called a “VENDRO” for one of the programs that Homeschool parents use.

Basically, the parents can sign up for our art classes and then we are supposed to invoice the homeschool program that they use.

QUESTION:
Is it possible, to make any events listed under the “Homeschool” event espresso category, show an extra payment option of “Invoice Homeschool Program”?

Hi Jarred,

I can point you in the direction of the Payment Methods Pro add-on which allows for setting extra payment options for an event:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/payment-methods-pro-add-on/

Currently its User Interface doesn’t hook into Event Espresso Event Categories, so you’d need to set the extra payment option for each homeschool art class.

Question:
The Payment Method Add-on says this:

Can this add-on be used with the Multiple Event Registration add-on?
The Payment Methods Pro add-on cannot be used with the Multiple Event Registration add-on as the Multiple Event Registration add-on allows a guest to add multiple events to a cart and then register at once.

Does that mean I can’t use the add-on at all? Becuase I have MER installed and working for long time now.

THanks

What version of EE core, the payment methods pro add-on (PMP) and multi-event registration add-on (MER) do you have enabled on the site?

MER is not compatible with the PMP add-on for a few different reasons but for example here’s one, lets say:

Event A uses Stripe payment method 1
Event B uses Stripe payment method 2

Both Event A and Event B are added to the cart…. which payment method should EE use?

With the latest versions of all of the add-ons Payment Methods Pro should de-activate if the Multi-Event Registration Add-on is enabled.
