Passing more info to square

I have setup a wix store and integrated it with square, but the transactions processed in square does not register the product name, just a “custom amount”. There is also a feature in square to specify a modifier for the product, but I don’t know how to pass the modifier information to square from the wix store. Can anyone help?

This is not part of Corvid, therefore you would be better suited going through Wix Support for more help https://support.wix.com/en/article/contacting-wix-support

Thank you for your feedback givemeawhisky, however, I’m not looking to setup the wix store, as I have already done that. I have also spent the last month with support from both square and wix to be told that I need to do this myself, and wix suggested I should use corvid.

The problem is not setting up the store, the problem is getting the store in wix to pass square the right information so that when I run reports in square it doesn’t tell me that all my online purchases were custom amounts. Additionally, I would like our customers to be able to specify the square “modifier” when purchasing.

Thanks

In that case you might have to open up your site and work with Square’s own API with the use of Wix Fetch or Wix HTTP Functions.

Square own support page where if you follow the import tool link you can add your own price…

We have an integration with Wix , though you’d still have to build out your Item Library with Point of Sale. The good news is that you can import your items in bulk using our import tool: Import Items Online .

For general information on activating your account, have a look at our setup guide: Square Get Started Guide .

@givemeawhisky Thanks for your reply. I have tried looking at those articles, but I’m lost as to how to do this. Are you saying that I can’t use the wix store and have to create my own store from scratch? or can I alter the existing store that I have?

@robwhitley
You don’t have to do anything different in your store, just connect things like if you are using Stripe for example and doing it through code, although obviously you will have to change the code to suit Square API and not Stripe API etc.
