Common Troubleshooting

Q: How do I share payment value vouchers with customers in the

...

My Account section so they can use these vouchers for payment on the payment step?

For payment value vouchers, ensure they are set to a payment value/recipient in order for it to show in My Account.  The Voucher Type being used also has to have a ‘Report' defined in its setup.  It doesn't matter what report it is but it has to be defined as something in order for the voucher to show in My Account.  We may also have to add some SQL security to the user we are using as there is a call into RTP to check the account holders’ vouchers in order to display them.

...

No, Affirm requires that the entire balance of the order be paid with Affirm if Affirm is the selected payment method.

Q: We do not want to allow guests to use stored value when purchasing season passes. Is there a way to restrict stored value on

...

Aspenware for specific products or is this a global setting? If it is a global setting, is it possible to turn this feature off when we launch?

A: Unfortunately this is a store-wide setting and can't be restricted to specific products. To turn it off you just need to uncheck stored value in the additional payments section of admin.
