In fact, you *should* link your Paypal account to a credit card as the main card. Then you have a double fail-safe fallback if something goes wrong or you are royally screwed by a vendor.

Fons, you don't need a creditcard to be able to use PayPal, just link PayPal to your bankaccount and transfer the subscription fees to our PayPal account by following the instructions mentioned here: http://nikongear.net/revival/index.php?topic=264.0

[Fons Baerken]

thanks i will check it out

Happily to paid the subscription fee. Quite reasonable.

So far no good, bankaccount connected to a paypal account, but while proceeding for payment, it stills asks for a cc.

[Bjørn Rørslett]

Paypal can use either credit or debit cards. I have both kinds attached to my Paypal account.

If you are using Paypal as a repository for online purchases, a credit card adds extra security if the sale fails.

It takes a while for PayPal to be fully synced with a bank account, first a small amount and codes have to be exchanged to establish a trusted relationship. Maybe PayPal asked for a cc because the setup hasn't fully established yet, anyhow there's no rush as you have a couple of weeks to sort it out before we start restricting the beta users

Subscribed. I hope you get rich

Will the forum only be available to subscribers going forward or how will it be configured?

Added: I just noticed that the payment is setup as a recurring payment which I have no problems with, but you might want to put that info on the subscription page.

It should be clear from the text here:

http://nikongear.net/revival/index.php?topic=264.0


How to subscribe:
- Go to your Profile
- Hover over "Actions" and click on "Paid Subscriptions"
- Click on the Order button
- Either leave the "Make this a recurring option" checked or change it (you will get a reminder 30 days in advance when the subscription ends)
- Click on the "Order with PayPal" button, login and proceed with the payments procedures
- Once you have paid your member group will change to NG Supporter

I somehow ended up managing the subscriptions so please don't hesitate to pop me (Jan Ann) a question if things aren't clear.

Also Bjørn has made our intentions visible here:

Thanks for joining!

I was thinking of the actual page where you subscribe: http://nikongear.net/revival/index.php?action=profile;area=subscriptions;u=18

Will the site only be available to subscribers in the future?

[Bjørn Rørslett]

Depends on how you see it.

Anonymous guest visitors will NOT see images or any other kind of attachments. They are free to peruse the text of any posts, but the site is read-only so they cannot post anything. This policy is implemented already.

If you wish to have full access to NikonGear, you can register as a Free Trial User, the account of which expires in 30 days (currently, this is the group denoted 'Beta tester', but as of now the expiration period is not set). Alternatively, you can sign up as a Subscriber (directly, or from your Free Trial Account). A subscriber is moved into the privileged NG Supporter group and can post and upload attachments.

Subscription runs for 12 month and currently is 20 Euro. You will receive notification 30 days before subscription elapses.

Thanks for the quick reply. Sounds good to me.

[Erik Lund]

Thanks Jørgen!

It may take up to week before the transfer is successful, but the order has been done.
