User' Credit Detail

Overview

The first thing to point out is that User Credit is OPTIONAL - you do not need to implement user credits unless you want to.

 

What is a User Credit?

User Credit is a number, representing a currency amount, associated with a registered user. You can sell your customer user credits OUTSIDE of ABPro then enter their number of credits into ABPro. Now when they go to make a booking, the cost of the booking is deducted from their credits.

 

Why use User Credit?

A few reasons:

  1. If you want to sell your customer the ability to make multiple bookings without paying each time. For example, selling a package of 5 appointments.
     
  2. Quantity discounting. You can sell a package of 10 appointments for less than the cost of 10 individual appointments. This could be done for example by selling $100 of credits for $75.
     
  3. Support additional payment gateways, for example sell credits through Virtumart or an existing gateway, then just add the credits into ABPro.
