Verify & complete checkout

[Step 6 of 9] The buyer is redirected to checkoutResultReturnUrl after Amazon Pay has processed the transaction. The Amazon Pay checkout session ID will be included as a query parameter.

In this step, you will use the checkout session ID to confirm that the buyer has successfully returned to your site and finalize the paymentIntent. At the end of this step, you will be able to present the buyer with the checkout result.
