About
LinkPoint Select API Modules
- The
LinkPoint Select API shipping module calculates shipping by flat
rate or dollar amount per order. Shipping tables are configured
based on zones or the type of shipping used. This versatile module
allows merchants to determine shipping charges precisely.
- The LinkPoint Select API sales-tax module calculates sales tax
by state and municipality. This module allows merchants to determine
how or when customers are charged sales tax for products and
services they have ordered.
- The LinkPoint Select API electronic soft-good download (ESD)
module completely automates the Internet-based sale of soft goods
(i.e., products that are ordered and electronically paid for and
delivered via downloads, including software, graphic images, photos
and music). The ESD module allows the digital-content vendor to sell
soft goods with byte-by-byte tracking of the software download. The
module also supports key-type downloads, which the buyer can use to
unlock an encrypted file downloaded by other means.
