Glossary

VayaPin (the product)​

The GPS-precision digital address system. A unique human-readable code maps to an exact physical location with GPS coordinates, entrance photos, and custom delivery instructions.

VayaPin code / alias​

The short code a customer types at checkout, e.g. MARIA86. Case-insensitive on the server side.

Autofill​

The act of resolving a VayaPin code to address fields and writing them into the WooCommerce checkout form.

The checkbox at checkout, after the address fields and before payment, that lets a shopper turn the address they just typed into a permanent VayaPin for reuse on other stores. Its wording is fixed by VayaPin and carries a version id, it is never pre-ticked, and it appears only while a valid API key is saved. Merchants cannot reword it or switch it off.

API key / API token​

The secret string that authenticates your store with the VayaPin API. Lives in Connection tab, stored encrypted at rest.

Environment​

Either Production (live data, counts against quota) or Sandbox (test data, free).

Webhook​

A signed HTTP POST carrying an event. Two kinds: incoming VayaConnect webhooks, which VayaPin sends to your store when a requested address resolves or changes (set up in the VayaPin dashboard), and outgoing webhooks, which the plugin sends to an endpoint you choose (configured in the Notifications tab).

Webhook secret​

Shared secret used to HMAC-SHA256-sign each webhook (X-VayaPin-Signature header). Incoming VayaConnect webhooks use the secret generated in the VayaPin dashboard, and your store rejects any whose signature doesn't match. Outgoing webhooks use the Webhook Secret Key from the Notifications tab, and your receiving endpoint verifies them.

QR Delivery Sticker​

A printable QR code attached to VayaPin orders. Driver scans it → opens a GPS map of the drop location plus entrance instructions.

Pin Creation History​

The audit log of every VayaPin checkout event performed by your storefront (autofill success, new pin created, failures). See Pin Creation History.

Webhook Logs​

The full delivery history of webhooks received by your store. See Webhook Logs.

Conversion (billing sense)​

A successful VayaPin code resolution that resulted in an autofill at checkout. This is the unit VayaPin's quotas and pricing are measured in — not every API call.

Conversion lift (analytics sense)​

A directional estimate of how much higher the order-completion rate is for carts that engaged the VayaPin widget vs. those that didn't, over the same period. Shown in the Analytics tab.

Favourite Pin​

A flag on a customer's VayaPin profile marking your store as a preferred merchant. Set automatically when a customer creates a VayaPin via your checkout opt-in.
