Redirecting customers after checkout
Some payment providers are built to redirect your customers after they complete your website's checkout process in order to enter their payment details. They are redirected to a secure third party website associated to the payment provider. Once they enter their payment details, they will be redirected back to your website.
For example, you choose to setup PayPal as your payment service provider. Your customer completes checkout by entering their address, shipping options, selects PayPal as the payment option and clicks Buy. Your customer will be redirected to PayPal's website to login to PayPal account or enter in their payment details.
