ASP.NET - Secure Sockets Layer certificate

Hi All,

Please any one explain the below note:
The merchant must have a valid Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate and their Web site must be capable of initiating both client and server side SSL connections.

Trying to integrate the payment gateway to the asp.net website.


Thanks in advance.

An SSL certificate encrypts the data stream between the webserver and the client browser. You purchase a certificate from a certificate authority and it can be easily installed on most web servers.
