Gift Subscriptions

Our-Hometown now offers a Gift Subscription feature.

OHT Staff:

  • The plugin titled “OurHometown Gift Subscription” must be enabled.
  • There is a .JSON GravityForm file that needs to be imported to create the form within GravityForms.
  • GravityForms must be setup with a payment gateway, meaning Stripe or Authorize.net. (Paypal would not be supported).
  • Under Memberpress Options, on the Account tab, make sure “Enable Coupon Field on membership registration forms” is checked.

This form should be placed on a new page for Gift Subscription orders.

Readers will fill out the order form with both their own contact information and the gift recipient’s contact information. They will be asked to select which membership they are purchasing as a gift — all memberships available in Memberpress will be listed.

Once the gift is paid for, the system will generate a one-time use coupon code specific to this order. The code can be printed immediately for hand-delivery by the person paying for the gift, or they can schedule it for e-mail delivery at a later date.

Once the recipient has the coupon code, they can go to the website and register for the membership that was gifted. They’ll be able to enter the discount code for a full discount, and their membership will be activated.
