| HTTP Web Service for CD / DVD Manufacturing and FulFillment |
The HTTP Web service is an alternative to the product sales pages and allows distributers and publishers to send CD / DVD manufacturing and fulfillment orders to our manufacturing and fulfillment facility.
The HTTP service is for customers with significant order flows and an ability to accept credit card orders and handle customer service.
We provide you with a real time accounting system that details each order with product id, quantity, date, and recipient with address.
All HTTP orders are designated as pending until payment is made. You can login to your kunaki account and pay for all pending orders with your credit card or with Paypal. Once payment is made your pending orders are processed and shipped. You can also fund your account by prepaying with a credit card and if there is a sufficient balance in your account subsequent orders will be processed and shipped immediately.
The price is $1.00/unit plus the shipping costs if the total quantity per address is less than 6 units. There are no minimums and no setup fees. We do not offer quantity discounts, sales commissions, or special arrangements.
You do not require special permission or special software to use our HTTP web service. If you understand how to send HTTP requests over the internet you can start today.
Please read the documentation below. It contains all the information you need.
There are three types of requests you can make:
- Retrieve a list of shipping options for a particular order and address. You send a list of products with quantities, country, state, and zip code. Our service will respond with a list of shipping options, estimated delivery times, and shipping costs for the order.
- Send an order to manufacture and fulfill. You send the name of the recipient and address, the desired shipping mode, the product ids and quantities. Our service will respond with an order id.
- Retrieve the order status for an order id. You send an order id and our service will respond with an order status that lets you track the order. If the order is shipped with UPS or Fedex you also receive a shipping tracking number.
The HTTP service cannot be used to publish new titles. It is only used to send manufacture/fulfill requests to our factory.
You publish titles using our publishing software that is available at http://Kunaki.com.
All HTTP requests should be transmitted to:
- non-secure transmission: http://Kunaki.com/HTTPService.ASP
- secure transmission: https://Kunaki.com/HTTPService.ASP

| Step 1. Kunaki HTTP Service -- Get shipping options for a prospective order |
|---|
| |
| Description: | For each prospective order you should first get the shipping options for the order and either select an option on behalf of the customer or let the customer select from the list of options returned by the service. Shipping options vary by country, region and size of the order. For example, orders outside the United States are delivered by Air Mail while orders within the United States are delivered by First Class Mail, UPS Ground, or Fedex depending on the size and nature of the order. Our HTTP service will automatically compute the shipping costs for each option depending on the destination and size/weight of the order. |

| Example: | You send an HTTP request for shipping options: |
| |
HTTPService.ASP?RequestType=ShippingOptions&State_Province=NY&PostalCode=11204&Country=United+States&ProductId=PX0012345&Quantity=1&ProductId=PX04444444&Quantity=1&ResponseType=html
