TASK 1: INTEGRATE THE BUYSAFE SEAL

The buySAFE Seal is a flash/image object that is created via the WriteBuySafeSeal javascript function. This function, as well as other internal functions of the buySAFE Seal, is included in buySAFE’s rollover.js javascript file, which will need to be inserted into your website.

There are two different buySAFE Seals:

The Premium Seal is a fixed position seal anchored in the corner of the browser window.

Premium buySAFE Seal

The Generic Seal comes in three sizes and can be specifically placed in the location of your choice.

Large buySAFE Seal Medium buySAFE Seal Small buySAFE Seal

The buySAFE Seal automatically detects if Flash is enabled and, if it is, will be served as a Flash object. If Flash is not enabled, the buySAFE Seal will be served as a static GIF image.

STEP 1: INSERT BUYSAFE JAVASCRIPT INTO WEBSITE

The rollover.js javascript file contains all of the javascript functions that the buySAFE Seal (and buySAFE Button, discussed in TASK 2) needs. It is recommended that the rollover.js file is placed into your website’s header include file if you have one since this file must be available on all pages of your website.

NOTE: This code points to the buySAFE SANDBOX environment which will be used during development and testing. TASK 11 describes how to connect to the buySAFE production environment.

STEP 2: INSERT BUYSAFE SEAL CODE INTO WEBSITE

Next, the WriteBuySafeSeal function, with your specific Seal Hash, must be inserted into your website.

If you are using the Premium Seal, this can also be in your website’s header include file – however, it MUST be within the <BODY> tag of your pages. It cannot be in the <HEAD> tag. You must specify your specific Seal Hash as the HASH parameter. The size parameter must be present for Premium Seals, but is ignored.

<span id="BuySafeSealSpan" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <script type="text/javascript">WriteBuySafeSeal( 'BuySafeSealSpan', 'Large', 'HASH=Seal_Hash');</script> </span>

If you are using the Generic Seal, you must specifically place the Seal code in your page HTML where you want it to show up. You must specify your specific Seal Hash as the HASH parameter. You can also specify a size (Large, Medium or Small).

<span id="BuySafeSealSpan" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <script type="text/javascript">WriteBuySafeSeal( 'BuySafeSealSpan', 'Large', 'HASH=Seal_Hash');</script> </span>

NOTE: When the Seal Hash is inserted into the Seal code, it must be "escaped" to properly conform to the character restrictions for URLs (as defined in RFC 1738).

The response time for your buySAFE Seal will be under 0.5 seconds.

NOTES FOR SHOPPING CART PLATFORMS:

Every merchant will be given a unique Seal Hash by buySAFE (more info in SUPPLEMENTAL TASK 1). As a Shopping Cart Platform, you must keep track of each of your merchant's Seal Hashes. If a merchant has multiple stores, they will use the same Seal Hash for each of their stores.

You will be provided a Seal Hash for your development test store.

Most Shopping Cart Platforms provide their merchants with the Premium Seal, which docks in the bottom-right corner of the browser. If you would like to discuss other options, contact your buySAFE Integration Manager.
