You can try to setup both A and B as subscription products. Set up a subscription button to sell product A.
When you create the subscription pament button for A, set the intial payment (X dollars) to match the product A cost, and the recurring price can be set to match the monthly cost (Y dollars) of product B.

So the user will buy product A, then automatically a recurring profile will be set up to charge the user an initial amount of X dollars and subsequent recurring payment of Y dollars.

Setup a chaining rule that says, when a payment is received for product A, automatically grant access or extend access to product B. You will automatically keep receiving payments (via A) but user’s access to B will automatically keep getting extended via chaining.

I have a question. If someone subscribes to Product A (one month). Then, after times up, after he have to pay (automatically), he must enter to Product B. But only if he paid for this one, too. I cannot give access to Product B, if he didn’t paid for it.

How can I do this?

You have to setup a similar rule in DAP Product Chaining that says when someone subscribes to Product XYZ, automatically remove their subscription to Product ABC.

The product chaining rule will take care of removing the user’s access to free product in DAP when the user upgrades.

You need to keep your aweber rule so aweber can automatically remove users access to free list when DAP notifies aweber of user’s subscription to new/paid list.

Hi Veena & Ravi

How does this feature work with a 3rd-party autoresponder?

For example:

* I have two products, ABC (free) and XYZ (paid).

* I’m using DAP/Aweber integration

* I have a rule set up in Aweber that says “Whenever someone subscribes to List-XYZ (for paid members), remove that lead from List-ABC (for free members)”.

Will DAP handle this?

Thanks,

If the existing users already have access to the top level product, then give them access to the chained seasonal product. If the existing users do not have access to the top level product and the top level product also has product chaining defined for seasonal product, then you need to just give them access to the top level product and dap will automatically trigger the product chaining rule and give these users access to both top level and chained seasonal product. Hope this helps.

I can do that … until I can figure out an easier way. LOL
Anyhoo, does I do it for the top level product or the chained seasonal product?

Would have to be done manually for the existing members. You can select multiple users in the DAP Manage Users page and you can give selected users access to the new product by clicking on the ‘Give Selected User(s) Access to the Product…’ under Operations.

Well piddle.

Any easy suggestions on how to release seasonal products to existing members?

It will only go to the new members.

Can I add product chaining and then remove it, then add a different one and remove it.

I have products which are seasonal specials and want to add them to a standard product.

For example, in December I chain tax postcards to my standard product and allow them to drip out on calendar dates until the series is finished.

Then in April, I unchain the tax postcards and chain display ad artwork to my standard product.

Will the existing members have the new product in the chain added to their access, or will it only go to new members?

If it goes to existing memberrs, will drip days be calculated from the day the series is added, or from the members join date? (Meaning, can I use drip days or must they be calendar days?)

If “drip days,” then will the calculation be re-started each year when the specials are added?
