Details
An explanation of the html parameters used by the shopping cart when integrating with
Nochex. Under normal circumstances the merchant does not need to alter them as they are
automatically configured by the setup program.
email
This parameter is the merchant's email address that the Nochex payment is sent to. This
must be an existing account that is already registered with Nochex.
amount
This variable is used to indicate the amount of money to be sent with the Nochex payment.
The format used is pounds and pence xx.xx e.g. £10.00
ordernumber
This is a unique number that is generated by the cgi section of the shopping cart, which
can be used by the merchant to track individual orders.
description
Shows all the details of the items ordered, including any VAT or shipping changes. The
parameter is included in the confirmation email.
The following are parameters may be used in future editions
of the shopping cart. Any one wishing to use them in the present version of the software
must customise the shop.pl cgi-script.
logo
This is optional parameter that can be used to customize the Nochex order form to include
your companies logo. This should be stored on a secure server.
returnurl
An optional URL designed to return customers back to the merchants order
confirmation page after they have made an order.
responderurl
Automatic Payment Confirmation (APC) . This can be used to pass details of the transaction
back to the merchant server direct from Nochex's secure server. This operates in a similar
way to the IPN system and allows you to process customers payments in real-time and store
details of the transaction in your own database.
