Top 10 myths of conversion optimization

Conversion rate optimization can be a humbling experience. You start with a hypothesis (your opinion on how to improve your website) and then run a test to see if you were right or wrong. There aren't too many professions that subject themselves to such quantifiable evaluation.

But there is good news for Marketers and eCommerce Managers: "surprising" test results often increase the conversion rate, and if a test does not beat the status quo, you have still learned a valuable insight about your customers. Knowing what moves the needle, and what does not, is the key to increasing revenue consistently quarter over quarter.

In this webinar, we explore the most insightful and sometimes surprising test results that often contradicted our idea of a "best practice".

Instant Order Search Export (ISE)

Overview

Export order data for your account from the 2Checkout platform.

Instant Order Search Export (ISE) works as a data portability service designed to let you export order information from your 2Checkout account packaged as either CSV or XML files.

Requirements

HASH validation

  • To validate the SHA256 hash signature, you're required to include all mandatory parameters. 2Checkout throws an error if one of these parameters is missing.
  • Include PRODUCT_ID and COUNTRY_CODE. Use empty values to return all results. 
  • The interval between STARTDATE and ENDDATE can not be greater than 45 days (for performance purposes).
  • Use UTC for the time zone of REQ_DATE. The difference between the value of REQ_DATE and the moment when you send the request to 2Checkout must be smaller than 5 minutes, or 2Checkout will respond with the 'Request expired' error message. 

Authentication

Authenticate requests using:

  • HASH. This ia a SHA256 Hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) that you create using your account's secret key and the parameters marked as mandatory for HASH validation.  To build the HMACSHA256{}  source string, prepend each value with its own length in bytes. Use 0 for null or empty values without prepending their length. However, when the value is 0 (zero), you do need to prepend its length (1). Note that for UTF-8 characters the length in bytes can be longer that the string length.
  • REQ_DATE. Use UTC time zone. 

Optional: the authentication can be restricted by IP or range of IPs from firewall (Accounts settings ->User access -> Firewall) for the special service user. If the IP from where you make the request is not configured in 2Checkout, the authentication fails.

Response

Provided that your request is valid, you will receive the information in line, in the requested format (parameter EXPORT_FORMAT), with HTTP code 200.

Errors

2Checkout returns errors in XML format. This includes authentication errors and no results after a search message. 2Checkout throws errors with a 400 HTTP error code for the result page. Sample response XML:

<EPAYMENT> 
<RESPONSE_CODE>1</RESPONSE_CODE> 
<RESPONSE_MSG>Request has expired</RESPONSE_MSG> 
<RESPONSE_DATE>20110209144927</RESPONSE_DATE> 
<HASH>2f69dda102b2a29e077452f64f4dca1f</HASH> 
</EPAYMENT>

The XML can be validated using the same SHA256 HMAC signature algorithm, using these fields: RESPONSE_CODE, RESPONSE_MSG, RESPONSE_DATE and using the account hash key.

Field Description
RESPONSE_CODE The response code (two digits)
RESPONSE_MSG A more explanatory response message
RESPONSE_DATE

The time of response (UTC), in format YmdHis:

Y = year, 4 digits

m = month, 2 digits

d = day, 2 digits

H = hour, 2 digits

i = minute, 2 digits

s = seconds, 2 digits

 

Possible error codes and values:

Message code Message description Resolution
0 No result found for the searched criteria Check search filters.
1 Request has expired Check REQ_DATE.
2 Not all the mandatory variables are present See required fields above.
3 The selected interval is greater than 45 days Check STARTDATE and ENDDATE.
4 MERCHANT is missing or incorrect Check MERCHANT value.
5 ORDERSTATUS is missing or invalid Check ORDERSTATUS value.
6 Ip not allowed by firewall Check firewall rules for special service user.
7 HASH is missing or invalid Double check how SHA256 hash signature is calculated.
8 REQ_DATE is missing or invalid REQ_DATE is missing or not in the right format.
9 FILTER_FIELD is invalid Check possible values of FILTER_FIELD.
10 FILTER_STRING is missing or invalid FILTER_FIELD is set to limit search. Check FILTER_STRING value.
11 Module is not active for your account Instant Search Export service is not active for your account. Please contact account manager.
12 EXPORT_TEMPLATE_ID is invalid Check the EXPORT_TEMPLATE_ID value.
13 Country code is incorrect. Provide a valid country code.
14 Provided time zone region is incorrect Check EXPORT_TIMEZONE_REGION value.
15 PARTNER_CODE is invalid Check “Partner code” in View partner section in cPanel.
16 PRICELIST_CODE is invalid Check “Price list code” in Edit price list section in cPanel.

Single sign-on (SSO)

Overview

Use this method to redirect and login users of the Channel Manager/Partner account automatically from your system into their CM/Partner account based on their email address. This method connects third-party systems with the 2Checkout Channel Manager/Partner Control Panel and enables your partners to seamlessly sign in to their Control Panel.

The getPartnerSingleSignOn API method logs the partner users only into the Channel Manager account associated with your 2Checkout account. This method will not replicate the functionality of a full sign-in operation for users who partnered with multiple 2Checkout vendors and are leveraging connected partner accounts.

Requirements

This method requires you to set a specific partner using setPartner.

Parameters

Parameter Type/Description
sessionID Required (String)
  Session identifier, output of the Login method. An exception is thrown if the values are incorrect.
email Required (String)
  Channel Manager/Partner user account email address.
partnerCode Required (String)
  Unique partner identifier.
accessPage Required (String)
 

The specific Channel Manager / Partner control panel page you want the user to be redirected to.

Possible values:

You can use any URL in the Channel Manager/Partner Control Panel, including links to specific orders, subscriptions/licenses, and partner invoices.

validityTime Optional (Int)
  The time, in seconds, before the single sign-on URL returned by this method expires. By default, the URL expires after 10 seconds.
validationIP Optional (String)
  The IP address of the Channel Manager/Partner Control Panel user, required for security purposes. Can be an empty string or a valid IP, but cannot be NULL.

Response

Parameter Type/Description
Single sign-on URL String
 

The string is the complete single sign-on URL with a token to allow authentication into Channel Manager from external domains. Partner account users are logged in automatically to their Channel Manager accounts.

The URL can be used only once and only within the interval of time in which it's valid. Call this method again to generate a new single sign-on URL for a subsequent login action.

Request

<?php

require ('PATH_TO_AUTH');  // Authentication example: https://knowledgecenter.2checkout.com/Integration/Channel_Manager_API/JSON-RPC/02Authentication
require ('PATH_TO_setPartner'); // setPartner example: https://knowledgecenter.2checkout.com/Integration/Channel_Manager_API/JSON-RPC/06Reference/Partner/00Set_partner

$email = 'YOUR_PARTNER_EMAIL';
$partnerCode = 'YOUR_PARTNER_CODE';
$accessPage = 'YOUR_ACCESS_PAGE_URL';
$validityTime = VALIDITY_TIME;
$validationIP = 'VALIDATION_IP_ADDRESS';
