Thread: Paypal Security Warning from browser when returning to site

Paypal Security Warning from browser when returning to site

I am getting this security warning when clicking "return to site" after completing a transaction on paypal.

Security Warning
"Although this page is encrypted. The information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection and could easily be read by a third party."

I understand that this is generated by the firefox browser (similar messages from other browsers also) because users are leaving a https secure site, but the message is obviously very off-putting for users who have just completed a financial transaction on paypal. Has anyone come across a solution/workaround to this?

Thanks Very Much

Re: Paypal Security Warning from browser when returning to site

This is standard as you're coming from paypal (secure - https) to yourdomain (non secure - http).

Not that you need one but if you want a solution then you'll need to purchase/ install a SSL cert for your domain.
