From Spiffy Stores Knowledge Base
An SSL certificate is a tool that ensures the safe communication of sensitive data upon submission to a website, particularly personally identifying information and credit card numbers. The SSL certificate encrypts this information as it's transferred between internet sites.

How do SSL certificates work?
SSL certificates encrypt information at the time payments are submitted so internet hackers can't read the information as it is flowing across the information superhighway. Once the data reaches the intended destination, it's then decrypted into original form for use.
