When one places an order, it is navigated to the payment page. If the merchant is fully compliant with needed security standards, the payment page is created at the merchant's server, which brings all the cart information. The card and transaction details are collected and stored on a secure site of the payment gateway. The transaction is processed, and the bank for approval is mad
