AgoraCart Free User Forums

This is an email exchange I had with 2CO tech support concerning which link to use for your Agora shopping cart. In a nutshell, the issue revolves around Authorize.net parameters. I hope this helps to de-mystify the compatibility between 2CO and our Agora carts. Happy selling!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have set up my site using Agoracart. The link that is on your site on the Shopping Cart Specs page ----- http://www.2checkout.com/cgi-bin/sbuyers/cartpurchase.2c

does not work with Agoracart. Fortunately, on their forum I was able to find out that the link

http://www.2checkout.com/cgi-bin/Abuyers/cartpurchase.2c

works just fine.

Can you please explain what the difference is? Is this for all 3rd party carts or just Agora?

I need to know this because I am going to be setting up a lot of ecommerce sites in the months that follow and I would like to recommend your service and Agora.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance,

Bill

Hello,

Sbuyers is not intended to be used with most third-party carts, where as Abuyers accepts the Authorize.net parameters. You can see the difference in parameters on the page linked below. The top is for sbuyers, the bottom is for abuyers.
