What is a payment option
A Payment option provides a method of Payment for the Membership plan.
Each Membership plan must have at least one Payment option.
Multiple Payment options can be assigned to each Membership plan to allow multiple methods of Payment or multiple prices per Branch.
If a Branch has no published Payment option for a Membership plan, the Membership will be unavailable in that Branch.
