I'm making a donate button which allows people to donate to me. I have everything setup but now I just need the script that actually allows people to make the transaction. This is how the setup goes game > starter GUI > screen GUI > Frame >text button > script.

Edit: Figured it out, here is the script:

1MPS = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
2id = 1138682487
3local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
4 
5script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
6    MPS:PromptProductPurchase(player, id)
7end)

it better be a local script for it to work properly. You detect button press

`1`	`script.Parent.MouseButton1Down`

then you use a remote event, fire it

`1`	`game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer()`

then set up a listener with a server script

`1`	`game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent`

then make the transaction work, and you can pass information over from client to server using parameters like what ur buying

`1`	`game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer("chocolate")`

but remember, automatically the first parameter for the listener is the player who fired the event, so set up parameters like this

1game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, parameter1)
2 
3if paremeter1 == "chocolate"...

I hope this is the answer you were looking for... if not, then i will help

If you are going to provide an answer, please make sure the code is actually spelled correctly. game.replicatedstorage doesn't exist, game.ReplicatedStorage does. WizyTheNinja 834 — 4y

sorry, i will fix that, but in my defense its pretty obvious of what it means AlexanderYar 788 — 4y

Where do I put the developer product ID? The server needs to know what to give the people. DudeHyper321 17 — 4y

in your question, you said you set everything else up... what did you set up? "I have everything setup" AlexanderYar 788 — 4y

***local id = 1138682487

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PromtProductPurchase(game.Players.LocalPlayer, id) end)

The script I currently have

yes try it, if it fails then just look up how to do it there are working tutorials AlexanderYar 788 — 4y

Thing is it worked first time, but that was only a textbutton. I then put the textbutton in a frame, and it no longer works. DudeHyper321 17 — 4y

wait are you using a local script? Transactions cant be made with local sripts AlexanderYar 788 — 4y

and you cant detect button press using server script i think. so you have to use remote event. AlexanderYar 788 — 4y
