Standard checkout

Overview

Our Standard Checkout option provides a complete checkout solution that can handle every part of the buyer’s checkout process on a single page. You can tailor the whole checkout process to your needs by passing in billing/shipping information, currency, language, and checkout steps.

Integration

Standard Checkout can be utilized by passing the required hosted checkout parameters to our checkout URL as shown in the examples below.

Multiple Lineitem Example

This sale includes 1 product with a quantity of 2, a coupon deduction, and both shipping and tax surcharges. The form also passes in all the billing and shipping information.

Skipping Checkout Steps

You can use the ‘purchase_step’ parameter to set the purchase step that the buyer will land on when being directed to the checkout page. Possible values are ‘review-cart’, ‘shipping-information’, ‘shipping-method’, ‘billing-information’, and ‘payment-method’. Please Note: To skip a purchase step, all required fields must be pre-populated with the parameters that are passed in with the sale. If a required field is not pre-populated, the buyer will revert back to the step that needs to be completed.
