Paying for membership

**cajunfla** · 05-02-2019, 08:45 AM

PayPal is the only button shown when trying to pay for initial membership. Is there some other method to pay besides PayPal? I've never used it, don't want to start now.

Yes, but I can't seem to find the details. Our adminstrator, @Janet H, can help. She'll get a notice and should be along soon to address your question.

You have to go a bit deeper in to the payment process, where it will then let you pay using a regular credit card.
FYI, I just renewed RV Trip Wizard, which is owned by the same parent company as this site. Interesting that the credit card option was on the first screen - a big button right next to the PayPal button. Those interfaces are usually provided by the credit card clearinghouse, so aren't actually part of the system running the forum. Should be an easy fix to have it work the same way here.

As noted, go ahead and click the Pay Pal link. Once there you have the option of not actually using Pay Pal, but a credit card.

PayPal is the only option we have available currently. You don't need a paypal account however, they can just process your credit card like any online seller would. Holler if you have trouble.

Janet - due to the detest and poor experiences many have had with paypal (account or no account) submitting business or personal checks was an option with Chris.

Is this still an option ?

Thanks, Dan

@Janet @Andy R - Janet, I started thinking about how this question had been possibly raised sometime ago. I found this thread where Andy had answered it in his post #11 .

Sorry for the duplicate question and goose chase, Janet !
