Trigger renewal before usage upload interval

Overview

Trigger the renewal for a pay-per-usage subscription even before the end of the usage upload interval. Once the API call is made, the subscription is marked as ready to renew, and a renewal will be attempted. If the first attempt is not successful, the renewal of the subscription will be attempted again based on the regular renewal schedule.

Request Parameters

sessionID String Required Session identifier, the output of the Login method. Include sessionID into all your requests. 2Checkout throws an exception if the values are incorrect. The sessionID expires in 10 minutes.
subscriptionReference String Required Unique, system-generated subscription identifier.

2Checkout charges customers using the payment data attached to subscriptions. In the case of credit/debit cards, if customers update their payment information in MyAccount or if you update these details on behalf of your subscribers, the 2Checkout system uses the latest card info provided to charge subscription renewals.

require ('PATH_TO_AUTH');

$subscriptionReference = 'YOUR_SUBSCRIPTION_REFERENCE';

try {
    $success = $client->markUsageSubscriptionToRenewNow($sessionID, $subscriptionReference, $Days, $Price, $Currency);
}
catch (SoapFault $e) {
    echo "Fault: " . $e->getMessage();
    exit;

Use Credit cards

Overview

Use the placeOrder method to create an order using products defined in your Merchant Control Panel and collect the payment using credit card-based payment methods.

Parameters

Parameters Type/Description
sessionID Required (string)
  Session identifier, the output of the Login method. Include sessionID into all your requests. 2Checkout throws an exception if the values are incorrect.  The sessionID expires in 10 minutes.
Order Required (Object)
  Object designed to collect all data necessary for an order, including billing, product/subscription plan and payment details.

Requirements

For credit card orders placed using API 6.0, you need to pass through additional parameters that support the 3D Secure flow. 3D Secure works by redirecting customers to pages provided by their banks, where they need to enter additional security tokens or passwords to trigger the completion of the charge. By using 3D Secure, you get additional protection from liability for fraudulent card payments, with customers having to go through an extra layer of authentication. Send the following parameters in the placeOrder call:

Parameters Description
Vendor3DSReturnURL Required (string)
  URL address to which customers are redirected after the 3DS details get validated by the bank and the order is successfully authorized.
Vendor3DSCancelURL Required (string)
  URL address to which customers are redirected if the 3DS details were not validated or the order could not be authorized.
