| Is there a way to check if someone had bought paid access? Like, say I put a game up in BETA mode, and it was paid access. Those who buy access while it's up I want to have special ingame benefits when the game is officially released. Is there a method that checks this, or am I going to have to manually check who's bought access and reward them? |

Easiest method would be awarding players who entered a game during Paid Access mode a badge, then discontinue after you release the game.
It is much easier checking a player for a badge then it is over Paid Access (Which, i dont think is possible)

Yes just check if they own the place like you would with anything else
if game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PlayerOwnsAsset(player, placeId) then

Actually it does If you buy a paid access game and comment, the yellow box next to you says you own the item, and it shows up in your places in your inventory
Random person, I just went to games and click paid access http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=46764950
Look in their items, under 'places' and 'purchased' |

Yeah it works
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr) print(game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):PlayerOwnsAsset(plr,159034126)) end)
Prints true for me, and false for things I haven't purchased/don't own. |

Use data persistence.
Player:SaveBool("Bought Access", true)
Disable the script after release.
then after the release:
if Player:LoadBool("Bought Access") == true then player bought access. |
