What is a payever widget?
Our widgets allow you to display the payment conditions and monthly rates for installment plans even before a customer initiates the checkout process of your shop. In general, widgets are therefore directly placed on a product page and inform the customers about possible installment plans for the specific product that is being displayed at that moment. If desired, it is further possible to offer an immediate and separate checkout on the actual product page (“Finance Express”) - in addition to the regular checkout of your shop.
For what payment options are the widgets available?
Our widgets are currently only available for Santander installments (Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway). There are no widgets for other payment options.
Where can I find the widgets and how to I implement them?
Step 1:
Open the Checkout app in your payever account.
Step 2:
After the Checkout app has opened, click on the tab Channels.
Here you will find all four widgets. The four different widgets (i.e., Text Link, Button, Calculator, Two Fields Calculator) are similar with regard to their functionality, but differ with regard to their optical appearance.
See the following examples to get an idea about the different appearances:
Button
Dropdown Calculator
Two Fields Calculator
Text Link
Step 3: Preferences
You can customize a widget using the configurations available at the top of the page (as exemplified for the calculator widget)
Size: Here you can set the width or displayed size of the widget.
Alignments: Set whether the widget should be aligned to the left, right or center.
Colors: You can personalize the colors of different layers (background, text fields, etc.) as well as the font color here. Please make sure to select a font color that is easy to read.
Visibility: This option activates/deactivates the widget. Make sure to set the checkmark, if you want the widget to be visible.
Sort rates by price: You will find this option in the General tab at the left. If you select ‘Ascending’, the lowest monthly rate will be shown as default (and therefore the longest installment plan). If you select ‘Descending’, the highest monthly rate will be shown as default (and therefore the shortest installment plan).
Finance-Express versus Overlay:
Each of the widgets can be used in one of the following configurations:
Not clickable/ None - If both Finance Express and Overlay are deactivated.
Overlay - If only Overlay is activated and the customer clicks on the widget, a new window opens on the right side of the existing window showing payment conditions and monthly rates for the installment plan.
Finance Express - If only Finance Express is activated and the customer clicks on the widget, a new window opens on the right side of the existing window showing payment conditions and monthly for the installment plan and allowing the customer to initiate a checkout directly in the new window separately from the regular checkout of your shop. Attention (for plugin users): Orders that are placed via Finance Express are only visible in your payever account and not in the backend of your shop system (e.g., Magento, Shopify etc.). We are working on making creating orders in the shop system possible in the future (new version expected by March 2020). As of now, if you activate Finance Express, please make sure that you don’t miss any transactions by checking your payever account on a daily basis.
Step 4: HTML code
If you have edited and adjusted everything according to your preferences and you are satisfied with the result, click Get Code code in the top left corner.
Now copy the code to the appropriate place in your shop. Usually this would be your product page template.
Last but not least, you need to replace the fixed example-value after "data-amount" in the code-snippet with your shop's price variable, so that our widget will be able to draw the correct price of each item and calculate the monthly rate accordingly.
