Alpha user points

Is there a way NON-Commercially to use alpha user points with Hika?

Non commercially or commercially there is no integration with alpha user points yet.
You can build your own integration plugin for HikaShop and Alpha user points if you know PHP. We provide a documentation to create plugins for HikaShop ( www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...r-documentation.html ) and I'm sure that AUP have their own documentation for that as well.

this might work. I have some knowledge of php. and jooomla.

I would also be interested if you manage to produce a plugin!

My thoughts were 2 possible methods;

1. The user can click on a link to convert their points to coupons - i.e 1000 points = £10 voucher etc

or

2. A payment style plugin to use points directly during the checkout process to either pay the full amount or part of it.


As it stands I think it will take my users a long time to accumulate enough points to convert to coupons but my current setup requires them to complete a form and submit it to me who will manually create the coupons - would be much nicer to be automated.

yeah, same way with me. We want to do a "guild bank shop" where they use the points to "purchase" gear / mats from our guild bank. They get few points for just doing daily type stuff, but get major points for accomplishments in game and participating in guild events.

The latest version now includes an integration with alphaUserPoints in the commercial editions so that your customers can earn points when buying products and use them on their orders payment:
