Because MD5 is designed to fail in demo mode for security reasons, the only way to test the MD5 hash is to perform a live test order using a real credit card. Note that if you cancel the test order from the admin panel immediately afterward, no transaction fees will apply to the sale.
Product options are variable selections of certain products offered to customers.
For instance, a customer wants to buy an extra-large, red sweater from a clothing business. That sweater has two product options associated with it: size and color.
Two product options would be created in this example. One would govern all the different sizes offered, the other would govern the different colors. 2CO has a method which allows you to set up options like these.
The number of options you can have for a product is unlimited.
When you log in to your 2co account, on the main page of your Admin Area, in the ‘Helpful Links’ box, there is a link to “Look and Feel”. If you go to that section of your Admin area, at the bottom of that screen, you can set up your Your Secret Word ( 16 Character Limit ). Then click SAVE CHANGES.
The secret word is used by those wishing to check the MD5 hash passback, with a routine on their site. It is also needed by those using a program like the membership or download client. The secret word is also used to calculate the MD5 hash which is sent to verify the authenticity of INS posts.
The secret word should be a single or compound word or group of letters and numbers with no spaces. Examples: Monkey1mouse, 4smal3phone, gooblyWbubze.
2Checkout.com supports almost any affiliate program that works off of a hidden image tag on the sales confirmation page.
Just fill in the string that is provided by your affiliate program in the Seller Admin under Look and Feel. 2Checkout.com payment routines will fill in dynamic parameters like “order number”, “order total”, “your product id”, “quantity ordered”.
The Affiliate link will only work if you have Direct Return OFF. The hidden image tag is placed on the 2Checkout confirmation page after the sale and with Direct Return ON, this page is by passed.
To have the string populated dynamically, put the following variables in the appropriate location. The payment routine will fill them in after the sale is complete:
$a_order - 2Checkout.com Order Id.
$a_total - Total Dollars Paid.
$a_product - Your product id
$a_quantity - Quantity of product id sold.
Example src string:
https://affiliate.com/sale.cgi?order=$a_order&total=$a_total&product=$a_product&quantity=$a_quantity
If the buyer bought 1 of your product id 01-Widget for $2.00, after the sale the string would become
http://affiliate.com/sale.cgi?order=123456&total=2.00&product=01-Widget&quantity=1
2Checkout’s integrated affiliate program is the industry’s first FREE affiliate program. No additional fees are charged by 2Checkout for participating as a supplier or as an affiliate. As a supplier, you can offer affiliates a commission for successfully re-marketing your products on their websites. In this Pay-Per-Sale program, you choose the commission amount, and do not pay anything until a sale is made and the funds are deposited.
Our affiliate program provides our suppliers with many benefits over traditional affiliate programs.

You can easily make a link that allows customers to get back to their cart from your website by using the link below.

Note: Be sure to replace “XXXXXX” with your numerical seller identification number.
VbV is a security feature offered and soon to be required by Visa for Internet transactions. Depending upon whether or not the bank offers it, a customer can associate a password with their Visa card in addition to the normal security process.
If VbV is enabled, a customer cannot complete a transaction without their password.
When a VbV card is entered into the payment page, we automatically detect it as a VbV card. In turn, we will contact the Visa server. The Visa server directs us to unique pages provided by banks who support VbV.
Every bank has a different page that we will load. The VbV verification pages are not provided by 2CheckOut.
Different banks have different policies. Some banks require VbV. If a VbV password is not set, they may prompt the customer to set the password. Some banks do not require VbV or do not offer it.
If the buyer is stuck on the loading page for more than five minutes, it has to do with the issuing bank server. The issuing bank server may be performing maintenance or have an outage.
The buyer should allow 24 hours and try again and if the issue continues to contact their bank.
Most issues must be taken up with the Buyer’s bank. If the buyer does not know their password, then they will have to go through the “Forgot Password” process or contact the issuing bank. We can not offer a solution to bypass this step.
The buyer can skip the password, but this is done by using a different card to make payment. There is a link that says to click here to use a different card, which will return to the payment page to enter a different credit card.
Almost every issue with the Verified by Visa will be related to the verification. There should be a “Help” link on almost every bank’s VbV page. This “Help” link explains VbV, solutions to common issues and how to contact the appropriate bank.
