Embedded Checkout
Overview
Embedded Checkout enables you to embed a checkout on your website to accept payments without redirecting to a payment gateway.
Embedded Checkout has the following benefits over Redirect-based Checkout:
- Better user experience and less security concerns: Keeping the customer on your website when checking out makes the experience seamless and allays security concerns.
- Theming: Customise parts of the payment experience to match your branding.
- Custom payment method ordering: Order payment methods according to your preferences.
Example Embedded Checkout with custom colours and payment method order; note that not all payment methods are available in all regions or for all currencies.
