Answer / shanmuk
Notify URL, Return URL are different. Lets have an example:
If your transaction is done and due to some issue page not redirected back to Shopping site, there will no information collected by shopping site and there shopping site has to manually check for status.
In above scenario there is one additional step to trace transaction status. Instead of that Payment gateway will post information about all transaction to notify that transaction has been done alone with necessary details.
