Process Overview
The following diagram shows a simplified flow of a possible checkout process with the Payment Page in Redirect mode using a credit card. Depending on your integration and payment method the flow might look different.
The webhook call (4.1) can be configured to happen asynchronously. Alternatively it is also possible to wait for a response from 4.2 before the consumer gets redirected to the merchants webshop again. As a default, the webhook call happens synchronously. Contact us for more details on this topic.
