Stripe supports donations via a “Payment Link”:
https://support.stripe.com/questions/how-to-accept-donations-through-stripe

Currently, I don’t see a way to create a “ product”, which would be used to create priceID’s, which is what the Simple Membership plugin uses when creating payment buttons.

[M.Engelsen]

Good call out!

In our case, the payment button would be published on the website of a 501(c)(e) organization. This type of organization is tax exempt and 100% of the donation (minus the Stripe fees) will be used for the charitable purpose described to the donor.

[M.Engelsen]

I also need “the amount” to be reoccurring (collected monthly).

Or perhaps offer two payment buttons.
One button for a 1-time payment (similar to the what WP Express Checkout currently offers), and a different payment button for a reoccurring payment (which is something I don’t think WP Express is capable of for donations).

How odd! I don’t see that shortcode listed here:

[M.Engelsen]

Is this what your’re trying to do?
https://simple-membership-plugin.com/providing-specific-wp-user-roles-access-plugins-admin-dashboard/

If so, your users just need to navigate to the WP-Admin URL, after you have configured the setting.

I have never heard of a shortcode that makes a dashboard available to ALL subscribers. (Doesn’t mean that one doesn’t exist.) 😛

Great! Thanks for the update.

@Admin
I upgraded to v4.2.2 of the simple membership plugin. I don’t see any options (in the Advanced Settings tab) that would allow me to set a minimum password length. Does the password policy need to be set using a different WP plugin?

[M.Engelsen]

That would be awesome!

[M.Engelsen]

Sorry. I meant to say “the ability to set a MINIMUM password length”. 🙂

[M.Engelsen]

Will do!

@TheAssurer
Respectfully, I do not agree with the statement that “Increasing the password length past 12 characters will not make the site more secure”.

Longer passwords are proven to be SIGNIFICANTLY harder to exploit/crack compared to shorter passwords.
https://www.hivesystems.io/blog/are-your-passwords-in-the-green

However, security is a layer approach. If the WordPress site has vulnerable code, then it won’t matter if the user is protecting their account with an 8 or 28 character password.

I’m simply stating that it would be awesome if Simple Membership could offer the ability to enforce a password complexity policy. More granular controls, compared to what currently exists. Such as, adding the ability to set a max password length.

This new setting should be optional. Let the site administrator decide if they want to enable/disable this feature.

Currently, does the Stripe Subscription button rely on the:
Sources API
Tokens API
Bank Accounts API

Or does the button utilize the “Payment Intents” API?

[M.Engelsen]

I was hoping to use the ACH credit instead of ACH debit. ACH credit transactions can be executed in less time (1-3 days).
https://stripe.com/docs/sources/ach-credit-transfer

Additionally, ACH credit transfers are push-based and support reoccurring payments. ACH direct debits are a pull-based and there is a risk of failed payments and disputes.

In my case, our “customers” are homeowners who are a part of a home owners association (HOA). Our HOA fee is $250. As such, I would like the ability to offer the customer the ability to pay $258 if paying with a credit card or $252 if paying via a checking account (ACH credit).

In other words, the Strike credit card fee (2.9% + $0.30) can add up when the “product” is $200+. However, the ACH fees are much lower (0.08%).

In our case, all HOA members are US based.

[M.Engelsen]

Thanks! That’s exactly what I’m looking for.

Here is the “Custom CSS” that I needed to use to get the Payment button to look idential to my existing WordPress buttons.

input[type=submit] {
	  display: inline-block;
    font-size: inherit;
	  font-family: Roboto,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
	  text-transform:capitalize;
	  text-decoration: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    margin: 0;
	  color: #fff;
}

input[type="submit"]:not(.search-submit)
{
	  padding: calc(0.667em + 2px) calc(1.333em + 2px);
    border-radius: 4px;
}

[M.Engelsen]

Great, thanks for confirming!
