When and what data is sent
The plugin calls MPGS servers twice per transaction:
- At checkout – Creates a payment session with order amount, currency, description, customer name/email, and return URL.
- After payment – Verifies the transaction result using the order ID.
Merchant credentials are sent server-side only and never exposed to the browser. Card numbers, CVV, and expiry dates are never sent through this plugin – customers enter these directly on MPGS-hosted pages.
