Paid levels in Memberful would require the payment to go through Memberful itself, and since PayKickstart has already processed the payment, this cannot be done. (Optional) → If you want to allow the customer to choose their own membership password at checkout, then enable this option. If you want to provide the customer with an auto-generated password, leave this option disabled. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PASSWORD FIELDS: If you are also offering an order bump or upsell product with a membership integration in the same funnel, the order bump or upsell purchase would use the chosen password set for the first product(front-end) purchase. AND, If the customer already exists in the Membership service, then CUSTOM PASSWORD functionality will not assign the customer a new password, but instead, provide the customer with their previous set password to access the membership.Once you have configured the rule, click the Update Trigger button to save your automation.</div></details>
