Managing tax identifiers

Learn how to manage tax identifiers.

Specifying a customer's type and adding any tax identifiers associated with the customer allows you to attach this data to a cart and helps ensure that Digital River's tax computations are accurate.

Customer type

Use the customerType parameter to differentiate between business and individual customers. Specifying a customer's type and adding any tax identifiers associated with a customer allows you to pass this data to a cart and helps ensure that Digital River's tax computations are accurate. See Attaching a tax identifier to a cart to learn how to set the customer's type.

Attaching a tax identifier to a cart

To attach a tax identifier, create a cart.

Optional. Send a GET /v1/shopper/me/carts/active/tax-registrations/schema request to get the tax-registrations JSON schema. You can use this schema when attaching the tax identifier to the cart.

cURL

curl --location --request GET 'https://api.digitalriver.com/v1/shoppers/me/carts/active/tax-registrations/schema' \
--header 'authorization: Basic  ***\
...

200 OK response

Send a POST /v1/shopper/me/carts/active/tax-registrations request to attach the tax identifier to the cart. The following examples show the request body or response for customerType with the value of B for the business shopper and I for the individual shopper. You determine the value for the customerType enumerations in the schema when you attach it to the cart.

cURL

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.digitalriver.com/v1/shoppers/me/carts/active/tax-registrations' \
--header 'authorization: Basic ***\
