How custom payment methods work in the shopping cart
If you use the shopping cart, which allows for purchasing multiple items with a single payment, consult this section for usage scenarios.
Configuration settings
By default, the cart will use all payment methods configured in the account. However, it is possible to change this behavior via the shopping cart settings in Payments > Settings > Shopping Carts.
Checking the box Suggest the payment methods for all products in the basket will compile all payment methods present in the cart at the time of payment.
Usage examples
Configuration by application
Your account has payment methods A, B, and C. You have configured your memberships with payment method A, your events with payment method B, and your donations with payment method C.
A person becomes a member and registers for an event. With the default behavior, all three payment methods would be offered at checkout. With the Offer payment methods for all products in the cart option, only payment methods A and B will be offered.
Configuration by groups
Payment method A is accessible to everyone. Payment method B is accessible only to logged-in users, and payment method C is for members with "VIP" membership only.
An unauthenticated person (not logged in) making a purchase on the site will not be able to choose their payment method, as only method A will be offered. However, if they are logged into their account, payment methods A and B will be offered. If they have a VIP membership, payment methods A, B, and C will be offered.
