- 1. **Gateway** - For anonymous users, they are offered the choice of logging in, registering
- or checking out anonymously. Signed in users will be automatically redirected to the next
- step.
-
- 2. **Shipping address** - Enter or chooose a shipping address.
-
- 3. **Shipping method** - Chooose a shipping method. If only one shipping method is available
- then it is automatically chosen and the user is redirected onto the next step.
-
- 4. **Payment method** - Choose the method of payment plus any allocations if payment is to be
- split across multiple sources. If only one method is available, then the user is
- redirected onto the next step.
-
- 5. **Preview** - The prospective order can be previewed.
-
- 6. **Payment details** - If any sensitive payment details are required (eg bankcard number),
- then a form is presented within this step. This has to be the last step before submission
- so that sensitive details don't have to be stored in the session.
-
- 7. **Submission** - The order is placed.
-
- 8. **Thank you** - A summary of the order with any relevant tracking information.
