Hosted Payment Page (HPP)<br />

The HPP provides merchants with <strong>the</strong> required functionality to securely<br />

process online payments through <strong>the</strong>ir own websites. It operates by essentially<br />

redirecting customers on <strong>the</strong> merchant website to a separate, secure page to<br />

enter confidential / sensitive payment data. The page has <strong>the</strong> same look and<br />

feel of <strong>the</strong> merchant website, but is hosted by a trusted third party such that<br />

<strong>the</strong> merchant never gains access to <strong>the</strong> payment data. The status of processed<br />

payments is <strong>the</strong>n communicated in real-time to <strong>the</strong> web application via a<br />

backchannel.<br />
