A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed if you would like to have an SSL certificate that will encrypt the payment and account details that are exchanged between your website and its clients. The CSR contains info about the site and its owner in Base64-encoded form - website address, physical address and e-mail, company name and unit, etcetera. Based on this code, a licensed SSL vendor gives you the certificate, which is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to identify that they're a reliable issuer. During the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the set up of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - the two keys, the certificate along with the CSR. Then, you'll be able to use a URL beginning with https:// for your website instead of http:// and your site visitors can view the information that you have provided for the CSR using their web browsers.
