There are two steps required to configure the uStorekeeperTM - LinkPoint interface:
- Configuring uStorekeeper's LinkPoint Payment Option
- Configuring LinkPoint's Merchant Account Form
Each of these steps is described further below.
STEP 1: Configuring uStorekeeper's LinkPoint Payment Option
To configure uStorekeeper's LinkPoint Payment Option, begin by logging in to the
uStorekeeperTM Control Panel and pressing the "General Settings" button.
Under "General Settings", locate the "LinkPoint Interface" section as shown in the
figure below.

Fill in the four "LinkPoint Interface" fields listed in that section and
described below:
- Use LinkPoint? - Set this field to "YES" in order to activate
the LinkPoint interface.
- LinkPoint Instructions - In this field, you can specify the
set of instructions that will appear next to the "LinkPoint" payment button
that will be displayed on the order forms. A typical value for this field
is "Click here to pay by credit card on LinkPoint's Secure Transaction Servers."
- LinkPoint URL - In this field, specify the LinkPoint Processing URL
that was given to you when you setup your LinkPoint Merchant Account. The standard
value for this field is "https://staging.linkpt.net/cgi-bin/hlppay".
- LinkPoint Store ID - In this field, specify the 6-digit Store ID that was given
to you when you setup your LinkPoint Merchant Account.
STEP 2: Configuring LinkPoint's Merchant Account Form
To configure LinkPoint's Merchant Account Form, begin by logging in to
LinkPoint and configuring the fourteen fields on the LinkPoint Merchant
Account Setup form as shown in Figure 2 and described below.

- Custom Fields - uStorekeeper uses these custom fields to pass data to

the "Name" column of the "Custom Fields" section so that the "Custom Fields" are named
as follows:

- Check here if you would like to receive a copy of each receipt. - Check
this checkbox if you would like LinkPoint to send a copy of the LinkPoint email
receipt to the storeowner. Note that whether you check this checkbox or not,
uStorekeeperTM will always send the storeowner an email notification of any
new orders.
