What's the difference between «confirming the order» and «paying»?

Checkout has three steps, and "confirming" and "paying" are two different things:

• 1. Address: you fill in where you want the order delivered.
• 2. Summary: you see the final breakdown — products, shipping, VAT — and confirm everything's right before continuing. At this point you're not charged anything yet, it's just a review.
• 3. Payment: here you enter your card details and confirm for real — this is the step where the actual charge happens.

Why separate "confirming" from "paying"? So you can calmly review everything (sizes, colours, address, final price) before committing to pay — if you spot an error in the summary, you can go back without anything having happened.

Nothing is manufactured or shipped until payment is genuinely confirmed at step 3.
