Question Can I set a credits payment profile for specific products?

[butteroll]

So I have both Credits and ECommerce as addons.

I want to be able to let users buy their way into certain products by gaining credits, like through engagement in posts.
But some products I need real money for, so I do ask if it is possible to specify to products which payment profiles are available to them?

No, unfortunately not. This is because I had a design decision to make; either allow shopping cart functionality, or allow individual payment profiles for individual products.

I chose shopping cart, as I figured this would be most beneficial to this site (the primary reason I made the addon), as well as to the wider audience.

It does mean this addon cannot function as a Classifieds system and also cannot be used for this purpose.

It’s not totally beyond the realm of possibility that I add a switch from “retail mode” to “classifieds mode”, but at this time there’s no real plans to do so.

Any way around it? Also, another question. Can I have a credit currency be greater in value than real world money, to basically constitute a financial bonus, so it comes up at a "discount" essentially, encouraging users to charge their wallet rather than directly buy something.

Set the "Exchange rate" field when adding the Credits payment profile.
