We have items that we sell in Tessitura only through the back office, usually over the phone or by selling to existing constituents who have credit cards on file. We had a customer call who had never purchased from us, to purchase a back-office-only item, but the customer didn't feel comfortable giving us credit card number over the phone. Is there a way for a customer to create a new Tessitura account via TNEW and add credit card info to their account, without making a purchase? Or is there some other trickery anyone can suggest to accomplish this?
Not exactly the same question but highly similar, we have gotten the question about patrons maintaining a sort of "wallet" on their accounts (e.g. Amazon), where they could manage (add/delete/update) their cards.
This would certainly accomplish the task asked by Tim above, but goes a bit further. I was just wondering if anyone had anything like that in use. Presumably custom, but if there is any indication that TNEW would head this direction (we are TNEW), I would love to hear about it.
