How it works

Typical customer journey for eCommerce merchants using Hosted Checkout:

  1. When a customer is ready to complete purchase - you (merchant) provide details of the customer and/or their order to Acquired.com.
  2. In response, Acquired.com provides a link_id which can be used to redirect the customer to the Acquired.com checkout page.
  3. The payment methods offered to the customer, as well as the look and feel of the checkout page, depends on the configuration of settings in the Acquired.com Hub.
  4. The customer then selects their preferred payment method and enters details on the checkout page before submitting payment.
  5. Once the payment is attempted, the customer is redirected from the checkout page back to your application along with details of the payment outcome so that you can handle different outcomes appropriately.
