Introduction

Overview

To check out with Katapult, you must first initialize the cart object with the following information:

  • Customer information - This is the billing and shipping information that the customer has already entered on your site. Katapult requires that the customers billing and shipping address match.

  • Item data - The contents of the customer’s shopping cart, including warranty, & shipping details. In the item details we do require that your team implements an attribute to categorize items as leasable T/F.

  • Checkout data - Metadata on the transaction, such as the order id and any applicable discounts.

  • Cart ID vs. Order ID - If your cart id is different form the order id you will need to use the Confirm Order API to update the order after it has been initialized.

  • Sync Endpoint - Sync Origination will allow you to easily grab the UID from Katapult in the event you were unable to capture it on the GET and POST.
