Checkout Process Step-by-Step Guide

This guide walks you through the complete {{COMPANY_NAME}} checkout process, from reviewing your cart to receiving your order confirmation.

Step 1: Review Your Cart

Before proceeding to payment, review everything in your cart:

  1. Click the Cart icon or navigate to the checkout page
  2. Verify each item:

- Product/Service — Correct hosting plan or domain

- Billing Cycle — Monthly, annually, etc.

- Price — The amount for each item

  1. Remove any unwanted items by clicking the Remove button
  2. Adjust quantities or billing cycles if needed

Tip: Double-check domain names for typos before proceeding. Domain registrations cannot be changed once completed.

Step 2: Apply a Coupon Code

If you have a promotional coupon:

  1. Look for the Coupon Code or Promo Code field
  2. Enter your coupon code exactly as provided (codes are case-sensitive)
  3. Click Apply
  4. The discount will be reflected in your order total

Note: Some coupons may only apply to specific products or billing cycles. If a coupon does not apply, check the terms of the promotion.

Step 3: Confirm Contact Details

Your order requires valid contact information:

  • Name — Your full legal name or business name
  • Email — A valid email where you can receive order confirmations and invoices
  • Phone Number — A reachable phone number
  • Address — Your billing address including city, state, and PIN code
  • GST Number (optional) — If you have a GSTIN, enter it here for proper tax invoicing

Tip: If your contact details are already saved in your profile, they will be pre-filled. Update them from Account Settings if anything has changed.

Tip: Do not close your browser or press the back button during payment processing. This can result in duplicate charges or failed transactions.

Step 6: Order Confirmation

After successful payment:

  1. You will see an Order Confirmation page with your order number
  2. A Proforma Invoice (PI-) will be generated immediately
  3. A Tax Invoice (INV-) will be generated once payment is verified
  4. Confirmation emails will be sent to your registered email address
  5. Your services will begin provisioning automatically

What Happens Next?

  • Hosting plans are provisioned within 1-5 minutes
  • Domain registrations complete within 1-15 minutes
  • SSL certificates are issued after DNS propagation (1-4 hours)
  • You will receive welcome emails with login credentials and setup instructions

Troubleshooting

  • Payment failed? Try a different payment method. If using UPI, ensure sufficient balance and that your UPI app is updated.
  • Amount deducted but order not confirmed? Do not attempt payment again. The amount will be auto-refunded within 5-7 business days, or contact support with the transaction reference.
  • Did not receive confirmation email? Check your spam/junk folder. Ensure your email address is correct in your profile.
  • Order stuck in Pending? This usually means payment verification is in progress. Wait 15 minutes and check your invoice status.
