Single movie rental

[israel_alba]

Hello,

I have a website with one single movie to rent. I'm hosting the movie on my server, same server as Magento 2. What I want to know if there is a module that would allow me to rent out the movie? I'm thinking of  a private page to like members only?

I know how to create Product Type Video and how to configure Youtube/Vimeo plus generate an API key. However what I'm looking for is for a way to host my movie on my own server and rent it out to customers.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you,

If you're already up and running with Magento 2, and trying to turn the site into a movie rental site, here are a couple of ideas that could help:

1) A Membership Extension 

This will let you sell a product that starts at the time of purchase, and ends at a fixed date. Ideally, the extension will put users into a unique Customer Group (See: https://docs.magento.com/user-guide/customers/customer-groups.html) for the duration of their membership (ie. the "rental" period).

Here are examples of membership extensions that you could look at:

https://marketplace.magento.com/mageplaza-module-membership.html

https://marketplace.magento.com/magefox-membership.html

2) CMS Page Restriction Extension:

You could have the video embedded into a particular page in the site that's only available to shoppers that are in a particular Customer Group.

Hopefully, this at least gives you some ideas to consider as you identify the right solution for your particular website. 

Best of luck!

Based on the provided information, you have a Magento 2 store and want to add a feature to rent a single movie hosted on your server. You're looking for a module to create a private page for members only and allow them to rent the film.

Potential Approaches:

1. Custom Module Development:

   • Pros: Offers complete customization and control.
   • Cons: Requires significant development time and resources.
   • Steps:
     • Create a new Magento module.
     • Develop a custom product type for the movie.
     • Implement a rental process, including payment integration.
     • Create a protected page for members only.
     • Handle licensing and usage restrictions.

2. Third-Party Extensions:

   • Pros: Saves development time and may offer additional features.
   • Cons: Might have limitations or require customization.
   • Search for extensions: Look for Magento extensions that specialize in video or digital product sales. Some might have rental features or can be adapted.

Key Considerations:

• Payment Gateway Integration: Ensure your chosen module integrates with your preferred payment gateway (e.g., PayPal, Stripe).
• Licensing and DRM: Implement appropriate licensing terms and consider using Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect your content.
• User Experience: Design a user-friendly rental process, including clear instructions and a secure checkout.
• Security: Protect your server and content from unauthorized access and piracy.
• Scalability: Consider your potential customer base and ensure your solution can handle increased demand.

Additional Tips:

• Leverage Magento's Features: Utilize Magento's built-in features like customer groups and attributes to manage membership and rental privileges.
• Consider a Video Player: Integrate a video player (e.g., JW Player, Video.js) to provide a seamless viewing experience.
• Test Thoroughly: Test your rental module thoroughly to ensure it functions as expected and provides a positive user experience.

Recommendations:

While I cannot provide specific module recommendations without more information about your requirements and preferences, here are some potential resources to explore:

• Magento Marketplace: Search for extensions related to video, digital products, or rentals.
• Freelancer Platforms: Consider hiring a Magento developer to create a custom module.
• Community Forums: Ask for recommendations on Magento forums or communities.
