Using the “Fixed” parameter

When a product is passed into 2Checkout’s purchase routine using our Plug and Play parameter set, the customer has the ability to edit their product quantity and navigate back to the supplier’s website using the continue shopping button. These options are great for someone selling many different products, but can get confusing when a single product is being sold or a script is passing in products using our Plug and Play parameter set. To help correct the confusion, 2Checkout has implemented the fixed parameter to lock the quantity fields in the purchase routine and remove the continue shopping button. This way, you will not have to worry about the duplicate product purchases that can lead to confusion and even sale abandonment.

Implementing this parameter is as easy as passing in the “fixed” parameter
with a value of “Y”. (Please note that this value is case sensitive and must be in uppercase.)

Documentation Update

We’ve recently updated our third party cart parameter articles to simplify our integration requirements.

If you are developing a 2CO-compatible shopping cart, this consolidates our technical requirements into a single document, based on the parameter set you prefer.

Most developers will want to refer to our custom parameter set as detailed in the article titled What are 2Checkout.com’s own parameters?

Developers who prefer to use our supported subset of Authorize.net parameters will want to refer to the article titled What Authorize.net parameters does 2CO support?

As always, if you have any questions about integrating our service with your product, please contact us directly by telephone or by opening a support ticket in the Tech Support category.

Displaying Product Information

Vendors who use our 3rd party cart parameters often wish for the product details to be displayed on our 2Checkout.com order page. By default, when using this parameter set, only the value of the cart_order_id parameter and the total of the sale are displayed on this page. Did you know it was possible for you to create the products in your vendor account, reference them with a few parameters, and still pass 2Checkout an arbitrary total value? The process is quite simple. We will start from the beginning and you are welcome to follow along by placing your Supplier ID number as the value for the sid parameter in our example links.

Using Checkboxes With The Plug and Play Purchase Parameters

While the Plug and Play parameter set is typically implemented based on the provided HTML code, it can be extended and used in other forms. In this article we will explain how you can use the plug and play parameters with checkboxes. This will allow you to build an order form on your site where your customers can check the products or services they wish to buy all at once. We will also look at the use of checkboxes for product add-on and options.
