discounted reocurring payments?

drupler - October 26, 2009 - 18:31

I am selling subscriptions using ubercart, recurring fees and drupal 5.x. The problem is, certain groups get a discounted rate. For example, the general public pays $100 per month for product X, but I want certain users to only pay $80 per month. I was hoping I could do this with the "Ubercart Discount Coupons" module, by giving out a coupon code to a selected group, but this only discounts the initial purchase, not the recurring amount. I think the only way is setup multiple products, and hide the discounted ones unless someone enters a code. I'm just not sure how to do this. Users are not registered until they buy something, so I can't do it by roles. Anyone have any ideas?

ubercart.org support forums are likely better suited to answer this question.

You would think so, but I'm not getting any replies over there either. I don't think there is a way to configure using standard ubercart modules. What I'm thinking at this point is more of a hack method of using other modules to password protect certain products, and somehow directing users there. For example, I got to product x's page, and at the bottom I see, "Have a discount code, enter it here!" Entering the correct code would take them to a hidden product page, that would sell for a different rate with a the correct recurring charge associated with it.

The closest I've found is the "Node Access Password" module but it's 6.x. I'm hoping someone can see an alternative way of doing this.
