UserPoints Plugin

I recently bought the Essential version of Hikashop. I am using the Alpha User Points payment gateway as primary billing method on my website. But the plugin does not work as I would like:

Current situation: the user generate alpha user points with their on-site activities. With those points, they can order a product of the Hikashop. On the checkout page, the alpha user points payment method will disappear if the user does not have enough points to order.

I would like to have the alpha user points payment method active, also if the user does not have enough points to order. There should be an error message once the user does not have enough points to purchase.

Can this be done?

-edit-

I found the 'Hide when no points' setting on the plugin page. Setting this to 'no' will not achieve the result.

Hi Jerome,

Thanks for your quick answer. I am using the plugin as 'payment method'. I am sorry, but I didn't understand the second part of how to display the gateway, if the user has not enough points. Could you describe it step by step for me please?

Thanks Jerome,

That's the problem: the payment method does not show up if the user does not have enough points. We are using only one payment method and that will be the alpha user points plugin. If an user order a product which is higher than the amount of points, there is no notification saying that the product cannot be paid because of the amount of points.

What would be your advice in this case?

Thanks, that will work!
