You can't use a link to a simple checkout item, it have to be a form post.

Ok thanks, do you think a page redirect would work? 

Let me clarify, what if I send them to a page that redirects to the form, is this possible? 

<html>
<body>
<form name="PrePage" method = "post" action = "https://scotest.authorize.net/payment/CatalogPayment.aspx"> <input type = "hidden" name = "LinkId" value ="getYourOwn" /> <input type = "submit" value = "Buy Now" /> </form> 
</body>
</html>

 

for simple checkout, all you need is a web page, and copy and paste the form post code.

I am using Wordpress. Are you famailar with that framework. The only flexibility I have is to specify a customlink. The client wants to link from the navigation to the simplecheckout page. 

 

I am trying to keep from creating a static button in the navigation menu. 

Oh wait, so I can embed this into a page on Wordpress?

This is the site. http://www.raisingchampions.com/

 

This is the page they want to linkto https://simplecheckout.authorize.net/payment/CatalogPayment.aspx  

 

and we use this form to get there

 

<form name="PrePage" method = "post" action = "https://Simplecheckout.authorize.net/payment/CatalogPayment.aspx"> <input type = "hidden" name = "LinkId" value ="1d528a84-6c47-4d67-80a3-0e65764a9da1" /> <input type = "image" src="https://www.raisingchampions.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/give2.png" /> </form>

 

they want the navigation link to take them straight to a page to make adonation not a two step process.

 

Is it possible to embed this page on the site?

 

 

Not possible, it need to get the $ amount on the first page to get to the second(CC entry screen).

 

Hello - if possible could you explain the why behind this process? I need my members to click the button and pay an invoice - the link could be redirected to autorized.net - please provide some details - I want to know the why of this matter. Thanks & Regards
