PaymentsPlus installs like any other Joomla component to build a admin subscription management application for listing subscriptions or classified ads etc. PaymentsPlus collects payments for both offline methods and PayPal, additionally you can manage free listings within the subscription system. The component was originally built to work with Mosets Tree 2.09, but could be adapted to other similar components due to it's open code structure. PaymentsPlus is supplied with ready to go patch kits for Mosets Tree 2.09 and 2.1.0 and I have plans to build a similar patch kit for Mosets Hot Property in a future release. After this I may look at other components if demand is warranted.
All subscriptions can be easily edited, even those paid via PayPal. Admin can override several publishing conditions and then optionally advise the subscriber of any change. Admin can also see a snapshot of the listing without leaving the PaymentsPlus console to help ensure the submitted content is suitable for the website.
PaymentsPlus also enables you to extend the listing functionality by creating multiple listing types, for example, you can have Free, Standard and Featured listings. Based on this model, the Mosets Tree patch kit already has this built in and can easily be extended, simply by adding a new template (just modify one of the 3 samples supplied and rename it) and then register it with the PaymentsPlus database via a simple admin form.
Once you have created your listing types you can add multiple subscription products and set rules for Price, Duration, Maximum listings per user and which listing type the subscription will bind to. Once again this is all managed by the database via a simple admin form. Effectively, using the model of Free, Standard and Featured listings you could create unlimited products to cater for just about any subscription configuration. Duration can be Weeks, Months or Years, Price can be anything from Free to whatever and Maximum Listings per user can be from 1 to unlimited, these settings are editable for each product. For example:
Product One - 3 Months Free Basic Listing, $0.00, Maximum Listings per User = 1
Product Two - 12 Months Standard Listing, $99.00, Maximum Listings per User = 5
Product Three - 2 Week Standard Listing Free Trial, $0.00, Maximum Listings per User = 1
Product Four - 2 Year Featured Listing, $250.00, Maximum Listings per User = Unlimited
Product Five - 6 Month Featured Listing, $100.00, Maximum Listings per User = 3

This component gives me an essential ability to run part of my business and I can't thank the developer enough for creating this. It's easy to use and allows custom subscription pricing in such a practical manner. Excellent work!

I have been working on a listing site and the client didn't want to have to do anything to the site once it was done. Payments Plus allowed this to happen, people can sign up pay and do everything without my client having to activate listings or anything like this. I had a few hiccups with the program at first, but these guys were quick to respond to my issues and requests. If you are looking for a system for doing payments in conjunction with MTree, use this.

Sometimes I'm amazed at how long such seemingly obvious and common needs like a payment/subscription system can go without a solution...the wait is over! PaymentsPlus is the answer for enabling and streamlining an easy Paypal payment system for Mosets Tree directory.
The component with its modified Mtree files works very well with easy user and admin interfaces. Everything is customizable and even more so if you can dig into php code.
It took me a while to install and configure properly, but the developer worked with me and discovered some bugs that he fixed immediately; releasing an entirely new upgraded version of the component a week later.
I wouldn't recommend the average user to set this up, but then I wouldn't recommend they go anywhere near any sort of e-commerce system!
All in all, this component/hack combo does the trick and once setup, works so well that my not-so-web-savvy clients can manage their site subscriptions with ease.
I look forward to watching this component get better and better and hope that it helps as many people as I think are out there wondering why Mosets doesn't come with any payment system built-in!
