NATS4 MEMBER EXPIRE PAD
MEMBER_EXPIRE_PAD
MEMBER_EXPIRE_PAD, implemented in NATS 3.1, provides the ability to prevent member accounts from expiring until several days after their payment was due. This is useful, as it allows for delays in processing transactions from the biller.
For example, trial membership expiration will be delayed by 50%, with a minimum of one day and a maximum of seven days. In this example, a three-day trial membership will not expire until the fifth day.
To enable this feature, add the following line to your nats/config.php:
$config['MEMBER_EXPIRE_PAD'] = 1;
Custom Padding
Billers that support a custom pad date include Epoch, Jettis, and NetCash.
For example: Epoch allows you to delay member expiration by three days if they paid for their membership through them.
Keep in mind, however, that the MEMBER_EXPIRE_PAD setting will not override any custom pad dates from Epoch, Jettis, and NetCash. If you would like to enable a biller's custom pad date, please enter a request in our Too Much Media ticketing system.
