In InstaBill the payment link have &firstname=firstname&lastname=...

like this -->

https://secure.instabill.com/payment/add.asp?merchantID=000000&ProductID=00
&firstname=firstname&lastname=lastname&address=address&city=city&state=state&zip=zip&
country=country&phone=phone&email=email

can i remove these codes and just put it like this -->

https://secure.instabill.com/payment/add.asp?merchantID=000000&ProductID=00

I have seen sites that just put the merchantID and product ID but i want to be sure.

thanks,

:beer:

I would suggest trying to contact Instabill's support and ask them directly. They would probably be the ones who would or would not allow this.

well, i asked them and they said that i should not remove it, but the thing is that all the place i have seen removed it. The only thing it does is to print something in the boxes (i.e. firstname=firstname it will print firstname in the First Name box)

I'm not sure where you got your first code sample from, but when I "Get Links" in my MCP the HTML code they provide looks like your 2nd code sample....

Either way, I wouldn't see why it would make a difference.
