Adding a New Store

Overview

Log into the Merchant Center and click on Store > Add New Store. The Add New Store page is organized with tabs. A description of the information found on each tab is included below.

General Information

Store Information

  • Description
    Enter a short description for your store. The description will be used to reference this store throughout the SubscriptionBridge administration console. This description also is displayed to Customers that may log into their Subscription Bridge account.
  • Store URL
    This is the URL of the Web site that will be connecting to SubscriptionBridge.
  • Store Email
    The email that will receive merchant notifications.
  • Store Key
    A unique identifier for your store. The system will check to ensure no your key is unique. We recommend that you create a key that is at least 8 characters long. The store key is also used when rewriting URLs to make them easier to remember and more search engine friendly. So - if possible - the store key should be descriptive of your store. For example, if your store description were “Early Impact Gymnasium”, your store key could be something like “earlyimpactgym”.
  • Comments
    You can enter additional information regarding the store in the Comments field. The Comments field is not shown to customers: it's for administration purposes only.

You can upload a logo for your store. The logo will be used both during checkout (Simple Integration), in the Customer Center, and in all e-mail notifications sent by SubscriptionBridge.

Allowed formats: GIF, JPG, PNG

Recommended size:

  • Width: Up to 400 pixels
  • Height: Up to 75 pixels

You can use different sizes from the ones recommended above, but they could create small interface issues (pushing other elements of the interface out of place). Here is an example of a logo that is 350 x 75.

Payment Gateway

Choose the payment gateway that you will be using with this store, and enter the corresponding credentials. Support payment gateways are:

  • Authorize.net
  • PayPal Website Payments Pro
  • PayPal Express Checkout

You can also specify the credit card types that are accepted by your store. Please note that this setting only applies to stores that are using the SubscriptionBridge shopping cart (Simple Integration).
