When the customer makes a payment, how do you know which customer has placed the order? If you get one customer per day it is not a problem but when you get several at same time it is difficult to figure out who is who! I wish they would add an extra field where customer can enter the domain name.

There's a way to pass that info from a form on your site. Email them (or email/PM TomD here) and ask them about it.

Kickster, on the 2checkout site, after you log in, there are settings you can change to have the user sent back to your website or not, etc. There is also a link under every related option to a page with information on what values are sent back to your website. You can also send one value to 2checkout that will be returned, I think it's merchant_order_id or something like that. If you send the domain as mechant_order_id, then you can determine who is who just by looking at the emails that are sent to you after every order.

oh cool. Thanks. I went to their web site last night and I could not find any info on optional fields. I will send them an email before signing up.
