Sign-Up Forms linked to Purchases

Our company would like to offer a product that involves educational materials sent out via Autoresponder series.  Consumers would pay for the series, then once they pay they would automatically be added to a list and the autoresponder series would start.

 

Currently, I have not been able to locate a way to link a sign-up form to payment.  It seems that consumers would have to go through the "Enter Your Information" process twice to gain access to the series, which is a real shame as it can deter many people to add more clicks.  It would be great if there were a way, through Constant Contact, to easily add someone to a list via a payment form!

Hi @SteveF580 what kind of button are you looking to add? Also, which contact sign-up form type are you looking to add this second button to?

I have a contact from that has a button for a free Magazine I publish. I also have a pro version and wanted a second choice to appear.

Hi @SteveF580 thanks for following up with these details! At this time our sign-up forms does not offer the ability to add multiple sign-up buttons to it. Does connecting a redirect to a  pro magazine sign-up form on your thank-you page help fit these needs?

For anyone else finding this thread and also looking for this feature - please help us by adding some more examples of what you'd like to do with an additional button on a sign up form. Best practices would be to typically have one clear call to action, but having more examples like the one above would be helpful in advocating for this change.

One reason would be the inability to charge variable prices for shipping more than one product of the same kind. 

 

But the main reason for me is subscriptions -- to choose between dong a monthly fee and an annual fee.

Hi @SteveF580

 

Thanks for following up with these details! Because you're looking for the option to collect fees through your sign-up form we have merged your post into a request thread focused on this type of feature. Doing this allows your request to be tracked properly with the appropriate teams.

We're updating the status of this idea to more accurately reflect the status of the idea with our engineering team. We can't guarantee a commitment to deliver on the idea but should indicate some awareness that we have heard your feedback and are continuing to collect both requests along with use case examples.

It would be good if I could create a membership that requires payments from my clients to provide them with access to private content through a monetization system set through this platform.
