Pre-Filled Checkout is a feature that helps speed up the purchase process by automatically transferring the data provided by a visitor in a capture form to the Hotmart checkout. This way, the buyer doesn’t need to fill in the same information again, making the experience simpler and smoother.
In this article, you’ll understand how Pre-Filled Checkout works, what the prerequisites are for using this feature, and how to set it up step by step on pages created in Hotmart Pages.
What is Pre-Filled Checkout and how does it work?
Pre-Filled Checkout allows the data entered in a Hotmart Send capture form to be automatically sent to the payment page (Hotmart checkout).
In practice, this means that when the buyer proceeds to checkout, they will already see fields filled in with information such as name and email, avoiding rework and reducing typing errors.
Even if the payment is not completed, the lead is automatically registered in Hotmart Send, allowing you to maintain a relationship with this contact through campaigns or automations.
What do I need to know before setting it up?
Pre-Filled Checkout is an exclusive feature for integration between Hotmart Pages, the Hotmart Send form, and the Hotmart checkout.
To ensure that the automatic data transfer works correctly, make sure that:
- The capture form is properly configured in Hotmart Send.
- The capture form is linked to the main product checkout, not to alternative offers.
- The Sync with Checkout option is enabled in the form settings within Hotmart Pages.
- In the form configuration, the confirmation page type is set to Custom page, and the checkout link has been added to the Custom confirmation page field.
