Navigate through your Live funnel by clicking the Live Site button from the Funnel Visualizer. This will bring you to your Default funnel page and you can click your links and fill your forms like a customer would. If you are redirecting to CheckoutChamp, before you implement the redirect you should ensure the products are populated within your CheckoutChamp checkout page. To do this: Add a product to the cart by adding the product to the URL. This will display that product inside the checkout page as if the customer had selected it from your store front. To add a product to the URL, follow this syntax: ?products=campaignProductId:quantity Include a variant by adding a period and variantDetailId to the campaignProductId ?products=campaignProductId.variantDetailId:quantity Examples Add 1 quantity of campaignProductId 234 https://checkout.mysite.com/checkout?products=234:1 Adds 1 quantity of campaignProductId 234 and 2 quantity of campaignProductId 235 https://checkout.mysite.com/checkout?products=234:1;235:2 Adds 3 quantity of campaignProductId 87’s variantId 45 and 2 quantity of campaignProductId 79 With the product(s) in the cart, go ahead and follow your checkout funnel using a test card, live card, or live PayPal account.
Log into the CRM side of your account to search for your orderId and confirm all products were purchased and ran against the proper gateways. Also confirm that any order confirmation SMS or Email has sent.
If you tested with a live card or PayPal and are using a natively integrated fulfillment house, your fulfillment record will move from HOLD status to PENDING status after your fulfillment delay has expired and the fulfillment task runs (once every hour). |

Check out with your CheckoutChamp Test Card or a live card to submit the order and follow your upsell flow. Then find your order inside CheckoutChamp to confirm everything looks as it should. |
