Redirecting buyer to a Thank-you Page on your own site, rather than the standard E-junkie Thank-you Page
Redirection for the complete order
If you only want the buyer to reach a thank-you page on your site, bypassing the standard E-junkie thank-you page completely, you can enter the URL of your thank-you page in Admin > Account Preferences. This also overrides any product-specific Redirection URL and will happen regardless of payment completion status.
We will append the following parameters to the end of your URL in standard GET syntax. If you don't want to use these, they will be ignored.
- payer_email Buyer's email address
- first_name Buyer's first name
- last_name Buyer's last name
- txn_id Transaction ID
- payment_status Will always be Completed unless you have requested us to process the sales even for pending payments, in which case this will be Pending
- custom Custom variable [if you had appended one to the purchase button's URL]
- auction_buyer_id If this was an eBay listing
Inserting a download link to your site's Thank-you Page
Lately, we've been getting a few requests for something really tricky -- some merchants want to redirect buyers to their own site and yet still display E-junkie download links. You can use an IFRAME with its src (source) URL set to:
https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/rp.php?noredirect=true&client_id=CID&txn_id=TXN_ID
...where CID is your E-junkie client ID number and TXN_ID is the unique value for txn_id that we appended to your thank-you page URL during each redirection, so you would need to program your own scripting in that page which would grab the txn_id value from the page's own URL and rewrite that value onto the end of that IFRAME src= URL. For instance, if you use PHP, something like this should do the trick:
<?php
echo '<iframe src="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/rp.php?noredirect=true&client_id=CID&txn_id=' . htmlspecialchars($_GET["txn_id"]) . '" width="100%" frameborder="0" height="50px"></iframe>';
?>
To customize what gets displayed inside that IFRAME, you would need to customize the thank you page. For instance, you may want to add some custom CSS to your E-junkie-generated thank-you page (a good place for this would be Seller Admin > Account Preferences > Common Thank-you Page HTML), so the IFRAME content would better resemble the styling of your own site's thank-you page where the IFRAME is embedded.
Redirection per product
NOTE: Product-specific Redirection cannot be combined with File Downloads, as they are mutually-exclusive types of digital-product delivery. A File Download product delivers a file to the buyer, whereas a Redirection product delivers the buyer to a paid-content URL on your site.
If you want buyer to be Redirected to a page on your site after purchase, you can check the Redirection checkbox while adding or editing your product and enter the Redirection URL when asked for in the product configuration. This Redirect will only happen if the buyer's payment has completed before they proceed past checkout to view their thank-you page. The Thank-you Email we send to buyers will also include a link to activate this Redirection. If you specify product-specific HTML customization for the standard E-junkie thank-you page, that customized page will be shown to the buyer first, with a link the buyer must to activate the Redirection from there.
The following variables will be appended to your specified Redirection URL with standard HTTP GET syntax:
- Order Specific
-
- payer_email Buyer's email address
- first_name Buyer's first name
- last_name Buyer's last name
- txn_id Transaction ID
- payment_status Will normally be Completed, or may be Pending if you have disabled "Wait for pending payments..." in Seller Admin > Payment Preferences
- custom Custom variable [if you had appended one to the purchase button's URL]
- auction_buyer_id If this was an eBay listing
- auction_item_number If this was an eBay listing
- Item Specific
-
- item_number item number of the product in E-junkie
- quantity number of units ordered for that item
- key code sent to the buyer [if applicable]
- sku SKU of the item sold, only applicable if you configured price affecting variants in Admin
