Checkout & Payment

Public price and checkout evidence; live-payment checks stay manual.

15 checks in Checkout & Payment

What can a scan see at the checkout?

This is what happens after someone clicks add to cart: totals that move, fees that arrive late, payment logos that disagree with the available methods, and subscription terms tucked out of sight. StoreVerifier can sample the public path it can reach in a fresh browser. It does not place a real order or certify a payment method.

The useful comparison is simple: write down the item price, discount, shipping, tax and final total at each visible step. A change is not automatically wrong, but it needs a clear reason before the shopper commits.

Run a real low-value transaction yourself when payment behaviour matters. Settings screens and logos describe intent; a completed test proves what the customer can actually do.
