Global‑e Managed Checkout

When the shopper adds items to the cart and clicks the checkout button, the extension redirects from the native environment to the Global-e checkout (iFrame). The Global-e Add-on implements a Global-e API method that uses the Platform API to load the contents of the user's cart and passes it securely to the Global-e checkout through a server-to-server API call.

During the checkout, the Global‑e add-on posts the following to the Global‑e system via the SendCartV2 API:

https://[Globl-e API domain]/Checkout/SendCartV2?merchantGUID={merchantGUID}

The customer is redirected to a checkout page checkoutDisplay.jsp, in which Global‑e injects HTML via an iframe.

The Global‑e iframe is implemented as its own WCMS ContentPage (globalecheckout).
