URL Tokens are recommended for passing in defaults to the payment forms.
To set up URL Tokens, you will need to:
- Enable sites (this should have already been set up during installation Force.com Sites
- Enable URL Tokens
- Set default information
Note: URL tokens can be linked to Accounts, Contact, Campaigns, Campaign Members, Opportunities and Cases. Each of these can include a checkbox field called “Create URL Token” and "URL Token". If this is checked and saved then a URL Token is created and linked to the object. You can then define your own workflow emails to send this link to the payee for payment.
