Checkout Object

Checkout is a combination of the Shopping Cart, contact information, and payment information (if payment is due).


Shopping Cart

All checkout calls require a shopping cart to complete.  A shopping cart can either be created in advance using the shopping cart endpoint, or they can be sent in the checkout call itself.  For more information see the Shopping Cart documentation.

  • To checkout with a pre-built shopping cart, pass the shopping cart ID into the shoppingCartId attribute.
  • To build the cart at checkout, add a shopping cart object using the shoppingCart attribute.


Order Contact

Checkout can be for a guest, an existing customer, or an existing member.

  • Member: 
    • If an existing Membership ID is provided via the Shopping Cart, ACME will associate the order with this member.
    • Or if the order contains a membership purchase, ACME will associate the order with the primary cardholder.
  • Customer: 
    • If an existing Customer ID is provided via the Shopping Cart, ACME will associate the order with this Customer
    • Or if enough information is provided for a customer record (first name, last name, and one of email, phone, or address), ACME will automatically match or create customers accordingly.
  • Guest: If none of the above apply, checkout will simply be as a guest. Any contact information collected will be saved to the Order as the Order Contact


Billing Contact

If payment is taken, the Billing Contact can be the same or different than the Order Contact. In the case of a credit card payment, the Billing Contact information should match the credit card provided.


Payment

The billing email is required for the order email confirmation to be sent.


To create an order using membership discounts, see the Shopping Cart APIs.
