Here are BlueSnap (formerly Plimus)'s instructions for integrating Google Analytics in their hosted checkout pages:
How can I define my sales goals in Google Analytics?
To set-up your sales goal and funnel, you’ll need to set-up 2 goals. Login to your Analytics account, find the relevant Website Profile and click on Edit. Set-up the following under the Goals section:
Goal 1: Purchase Successful:
Goal URL: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow Result Success
Goal Funnel:
Step 1: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow$
Step 2: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow Step2
Step 3: /BlueSnapBuyNow/buynow processing
Goal 2: Purchase Pending:
Goal URL: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow Result Pending
Goal Funnel:
Step 1: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow$
Step 2: /BlueSnapBuyNow/Buynow Step2
Step 3: /BlueSnapBuyNow/buynow processing
Those goals didn't seem to work for me.
Is it because of the spaces and dollars?
However, Goal 1 started working when I changed the Destination to /?thank-you=1 (the redirection back to my site which the users get upon purchasing).

Here is some updated documentation about how to set up the BlueSnap integration with Google Analytics: http://support.bluesnap.com/docs/google-analytics
The URLs for the goals have been changed, as follows:

The Dollar sign ("$") is used for Regular Expressions, and is used to mark End of line.
My guess is that the Destination drop-down should be set to Regular expression instead of Equals to, although it unfortunately does not seem to be specified in the setup guide you provided.
Also, depending on how your URLs are set up for your checkout process, "Result Success", "Step2" and "processing" might be suggested Step names for your Goal, and not be actual URLs.
