Payment Data Transfer

Step 7: The Widget Warehouse's Thank You page appears and displays the transaction
information, again informing Bob that his transaction has been completed and a receipt for the
purchase has been emailed to him. The page also displays payment details, a link to PayPal
that Bob can use to view more transaction details if necessary, as well as links that he can use
to continue shopping.
For example, as shown in the following diagram: Thank you for your payment. Your
transaction has been completed, and a receipt for your purchase has been emailed to you. You
may log into your account at
www.paypal.com to view details of this transaction.
Step 8: Bob receives an email receipt for this transaction, confirming his purchase and
including a copy of the payment details, the Widget Warehouse's business information, and his
confirmed shipping address.
