Understanding The Payment Workflow: Onsite vs Offsite Payment Methods

Onsite Payment Methods

Onsite payment methods include PxPost and Webservice. Customers enter their credit card details directly on your website during checkout.

1. Customer selects DPS PxPost or Webservice (3D Secure) as payment  method,  and enters credit card details directly on your website

2. Customer places order on your website

3. Magento checkout confirmation page (after successful payment)

Order  is set to “NEW ORDER” status and the order will automatically be invoiced.

Offsite Payment Methods

Offsite  payment  methods include PxPay. The approach is less integrated than an onsite payment  solution,  but is more secure as your store never handles credit card data directly.

1. Customer places order on your website

Order  is set to “UNPAID ORDER” status.

2. Customer selects DPS (PxPay) as payment method on your website

3. Customer is redirected to Payment Express website to enter credit card details

4. Customer is redirected back to your website to the Magento checkout confirmation page (after successful payment)

Order moves to “NEW ORDER” status and the order will automatically be invoiced.
