Yes.

Because our Plug n’ Play cart functions through the use of standard HTML forms, you can use the PNP cart in any website creation utility that supports HTML forms, including Macromedia’s Flash product.

If you have chosen to upload your products to our database (instead of using a third-party cart), you can create a single link that - when clicked - will add two or more products to the 2CO cart.

https://www.2checkout.com/checkout/purchase?sid=XXXXXX&product_id1=Y&product_id2=Z&quantity1=1&quantity2=1

Be sure to replace the Xs with your numerical seller ID, the Y with the ID of your first product and Z with the ID of your second product.

To add more than two products with one action, simply append a product_id3 and quantity3 parameter, then a product_id4 and quantity4 parameter and so on.

Below are the parameters supported by the Plug and Play Cart. These parameters can only be used if you have added your products to the 2CO database. You are using the Plug and Play cart if you are passing in the three parameters listed under the Required section below.

Multi-page Payment Routine:
https://www.2checkout.com/checkout/purchase
Supports all payment methods. Supports tangible and intangible products/services.

Single Page Payment Routine:
https://www.2checkout.com/checkout/spurchase
Credit card-only payment routine only available for intangible products/services.

Required Parameters:
sid - Your 2Checkout vendor account number. (64 characters max)
product_id - The 2CO ID for the product or service in your 2Checkout account.
quantity - The quantity of the product. (99 max value)

Additional Parameters:

return_url - Used to control where the Continue Shopping button will send the customer when clicked. (255 characters max)
merchant_order_id - Specify your order number with this parameter. It will also be included in the confirmation emails to yourself and the customer. (50 characters max)
pay_method - CC for Credit Card, CK for check, PPI for PayPal, PPL for PayPal Pay Later, or FXS for FXSource. This will set the default selection on the payment method step during the checkout process.
skip_landing - If set to 1 it will skip the order review page of the purchase routine. If there are options on the products it will cause an error and redirect the customer back to the order review page.
x_Receipt_Link_URL -Used to specify an approved URL on-the-fly, but is limited to the same domain that is used for your 2Checkout account, otherwise it will fail. (no limit):

• This parameter will over-ride any URL set on the Look and Feel page.
• If Direct Return is disabled: If only one product is ordered, it will over-ride the return URLs on the product as well. If more than one product is ordered, then this parameter will control where the “Click Here to Notify [Your Company]” button on the final page takes the customer, but the return URLs on the products will be listed as links below the button, next to the description of the product.
• If Direct Return is enabled : If one product is ordered, this parameter will NOT over-ride the return URLs on the products. If more than one product is ordered, then this parameter will over-ride the product return URLs. Also keep in mind that many third party shopping carts recommend that Direct Return be disabled to work properly.

To populate the billing information page you may pass in:
card_holder_name - Card holder’s name. (128 characters max)

The card holder’s name can also be populated using the first_name, middle_initial, and last_name parameters. IMPORTANT: If you use these three parameters, the data will be combined into and returned as card_holder_name to your Approved URL script.

Please note that shipping information will only be collected for items that are defined as tangible in our system. Shipping is also only charged for tangible items. We will ask for shipping information if you pass in any of the shipping parameters, regardless of whether the item is tangible or not. This does not mean we will apply shipping charges to the sale, but their information will be collected.

The billing information page will also be populated with the information from the shipping page if the shipping information is collected on that sale and the billing information is not passed in.

Custom Parameters:
You may pass in any additional parameters that you may need and they will be returned to you at the end of the sale. The only restrictions on custom parameters are that they can not share the name of ANY parameter that our system uses, even from the other sets. Please note that you WILL need a return script set up on the Look and Feel page to receive any of these parameters back as they are not included in the confirmation emails.

Passing Multiple Plug and Play Products:
You may also pass multiple plug and play products in one form. To do this add a corresponding digit to the quantity and product_id parameters to group them for each product. For example, if we wanted to pass two products into the system we would be passing in first the sid parameter, then product_id1 and quantity1, and then product_id2 and quantity2.

Example:

<form action='https://www.2checkout.com/checkout/purchase' method='post'>
<input type='hidden' name='sid' value='123' >
<input type='hidden' name='quantity1' value='1' >
<input type='hidden' name='product_id1' value='1008' />
<input type='hidden' name='quantity2' value='1' >
<input type='hidden' name='product_id2' value='1014' >
<input type='hidden' name='quantity3' value='1' >
<input type='hidden' name='product_id3' value='1011' >
<input name="submit" type='submit' value='Buy from 2CO' >
</form>

You can receive back all of the parameters that were passed in as well as the following parameters:
order_number - 2Checkout.com order number
total - the total amount of the purchase
ship_method - the shipping method that was selected for this order (if applicable)
credit_card_processed - Y if successful (Approved), K if waiting for approval (Pending)
merchant_product_id - your product ID for purchased item
key - the MD5 hash that can be used to verify that the sale came from one of our servers

Also note that this is the only parameter set that can be used for recurring billing with our service.

Important: You can not mix the three parameter sets. This will cause problems during payment or may prevent the payment pages from working at all.

Note: Be sure to replace “XXXXXX” with your numerical seller identification number.

2checkout does not automatically calculate shipping cost, however we do provide a customizable shipping method system. You can charge a specific amount per item by including a handling charge for each product, or you can create base amount shipping methods which would apply to an entire order, or a combination of both a base charge for an order and an additional charge for individual items. Shipping can also be calculated based on the weight assigned to a product in combination with a weight based shipping method. Full details on creating shipping methods can be found in Chapter 5 of our User’s Guide.
