Managing Paid Listings
The Crowd Vox Paid Listing feature helps you to monetize your site by charging your visitors to submit or upgrade listings. You can setup your own pricing, plans and various rules as per the plan.
You can let your users list their product or service through your site with the options of images, custom fields, adding content, plans, featured status, deals, events, payment and other options. You can also customize plans with each of these options and charge your users accordingly. Available payment types include Free / Trial, one-time payment and subscription.
Examples
You can organize your plans like the following.
- One basic plan for listing submission - free or small price, with a set of custom fields and specific number of images
- One or more premium plans for listing submissions – medium and higher prices with larger set of custom fields, higher number of images, and other features like upload video, promote facebook page etc
- One or more listing upgrade plans – listing upgrade plans are used to upgrade previously purchased basic or premium plan with additional custom fields, additional images or video to make the listing featured.
