A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required if you would like to have an SSL certificate that will encode all of the payment and account details which will be exchanged between your site and its customers. The CSR contains information about the website and its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address and email, company name and unit, and the like. Based on this code, a registered SSL vendor issues the certificate, that's digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to recognize that they're a trusted issuer. At the time of the CSR generation, a unique private key is also generated and the set up of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - the two keys, the certificate and the CSR. Next, you can use a URL beginning with https:// for your website instead of http:// and the site visitors will be able to view the info that you have provided for the CSR via their Internet browsers.
