Definition

Documentation

The Create Custom Parameter enables you to create new custom parameters in your BlueSnap account.

Custom parameters are additional fields or values (either visible or hidden) that you can add to your checkout page. For example, you might use a hidden custom field to pass values along to your own internal system. Or you might use a visible custom field on your checkout page to gather additional information from your shoppers. For example, if you need to obtain the shopper's T-shirt size, you can add this as a custom field on the checkout page and require that the shopper select a size.

Custom parameters are passed in reports, Instant Payment Notifications (IPN), and sales confirmation emails.

Creating SKU-specific custom paramaters in the BlueSnap merchant console

The custom parameters you create through this web service are not linked to any specific SKU/contract.

If you would like to create custom parameters that are connected to a specific contract, you can do that in the BlueSnap merchant console. For instructions, see Setting up custom fields.
