Regarding VB install/upgrades and payment mode?

[drdoc]

I have VB suite 4.1.7 and want to upgrade to VB5 once it is available.

I have 3 qs

1.Will VB5 have Facebook integrated with that or should i need to purchase again FB app separately even after upgrading to VB5? I heard that with VB5 initial release there wont be FB connect integrated.

2.If i need to upgrade and install then Will you charge for VB4.1.7 upgrade to VB5 separately and for Installation (150$) separately? I mean if we upgrade then will you install for me with in that charge if i request so?...Because i need vb tech guy to upgrade and install for me. I saw in purchase section that install/upgrade is 150$.

3. Any option to pay using my cousin CC ? will you need exclusively my CC to pay you ( other than paypal and wiretransfer etc)? will you accept virtual Credit Card on my name? Our country don't have paypal facility to pay others ( but just allows accepting payments) and i don't have direct credit card. So can i use Virtual credit card ?

Ohh i forgot to mention thank you

The facebook app has nothing to do with the built in functionality of facebook in the software.

If you want us to do the upgrade, it would be 150 USD to upgrade from one version, to the current version you have. You could pay us 150 usd to upgrade you from vBulletin 1.1.6 to 5.0.0.

We take paypal, credit card, and wire transfers. IF your virtual card will work to process a payment though visa/mastercard it should be fine.

I have a bank DEBIT card which is Master card. Regarding Virtual credit card one of my BANK describes below

NetSafe enables you to generate a unique virtual card number using your physical Visa Debit/Credit or Mastercard Debit/Credit Card.Your physical card number is thus safe from getting exposed on the net. NetSafe is currently FREE for all HDFC Bank Visa and Mastercard Debit and Creditcard holders.

Verified by Visa(VBV)/MasterCard^® SecureCode^™ (MSC)/ProtectBuy^SM is a service from Visa/MasterCard/Diners that lets you shop online securely with your existing Debit/Credit card on participating VBV/MSC/ProtectBuy websites.

NEXT regarding Facebook. Actually i have 4.1.7 without facebook connect. So i want facebook connect directly with VB5 without paying separately again now for FB connect. So is that VB5 have FB connect integrated with it?

NEXT if i upgrade from 4.1.7 to VB5 license then you said its 150$. So i think you will convert my VB 41.17 directly to VB5 with 150$. My question is will you install and upgrade for me if i pay 150$. Why am asking this is " just for allowing/permitting upgrade to vb5 is 150$ or will you do it for me bcz i dont know how to do that?

ATM upgrading the licence from vB3 to vB4 cost $175

Expecting the same price from vB4 to vB5 will cost you:
$175 for the licence
plus
$150 for the Pro upgrade by the staff.

yea i too doubt so...Upgrade permission ( some "X"charge) + Doing that upgrade for me by vb staff (150$).
So total together USD= X+150. VB staff plz confirm this

What about FB connect. Will i get FB connect integrated with VB5 or again shall i purchase for 99$ separately?

The $99.00 Facebook App actually has little to do with Facebook Connect.

Facebook Connect is a standard feature of the software and is available in the base package at no extra charge.

So that means i don't need to purchase 99$ FB connect if i upgrade from my current VB4.1.7 to VB5 OR FB app is different from FB connect? Can anyone explain difference and shall i need to pay 99$ to allow people to login to my forum directly via FB login? Thanks

So what shall i do to getting following features on my VB 41.17. Am soon going to upgrade for VB5

questions

1. How to provide a facility to allow users to login to my forum using FB login directly?
2. How can i connect to my FB fan page directly?
3. How to updates and new posts etc from my forum reflect on my FB fan page and as feeds to my FB friends etc

I want above 3 features so what can i do..what should i purchase..how much it cost. If i wait until VB5 release, then will i get any of above features FREE of cost unlike 4.1.7

The default integrated Facebook stuff is the like function and registration with a Facebook account, that's what you're looking for.
The 99$ Facebook app is something way different.

FB has a much bigger chance to attract vB's users.

yes i agree that FB users attract more to my website and also easy to use for my VB users as well.
