The Synchrony BigCommerce Extension enables easy integration of the Synchrony Payment product, which allows you to support customer credit applications and purchases online. All authorizations, captures, and refunds are processed through the BigCommerce payment gateway. Our extension allows customers to use Synchrony financing at checkout and complete their order seamlessly. Consumers can apply, be approved and Pay with Synchrony at Checkout in a seamless apply and buy flow.
Consumers with an existing Synchrony Credit Card on the merchant’s program, can choose to Pay with Synchrony, complete an account number lookup process, and use their account. Merchants will use their BigCommerce console to process the payment as part of their normal order flow. Shipping the product will capture the order payment details, and initiate funding for the order. Funding is completed within two business days once order is shipped.
This document provides the steps to integrate the Synchrony applications into an enrolled merchant’s BigCommerce eCommerce site.
This document is intended for the merchant and/or merchant development team to install the Synchrony Marketing and Payment Gateway applications, and to successfully use the applications for consumers to apply for and pay with Synchrony at checkout.

BigCommerce allows you to add regions for widget placement. Regions are specific locations in the Stencil theme template files where you can place a widget. You can add a region at the file level using the format {{{region name="..."}}} and name the region however you like, but it is best practice to give it a name that is descriptive of the location and function. For example {{{region name="syf_region"}}}.
{{{region name="..."}}}
{{{region name="syf_region"}}}
You’ll be creating {{{region name="syf_region"}}} to display the Synchrony widget on the PDP and/or Cart page.

Notes:
Promotions are financing offers, such as 6 months deferred interest. Each promotion has a cost, which is expressed as the Merchant Discount Rate. This Merchant Discount Rate is subtracted from the funded amount of the purchase, and this amount represents the cost of financing provided by Synchrony. Merchants cannot pass on the cost of financing to consumers. Available promotions are determined by Synchrony.
The Merchant Discount Rate is determined by the Product Solution selected during enrollment. If you would like to discuss other Product Solution sets, please contact Synchrony at 800-333-1082 or email us at eCommerce@syf.com
