What is a checkout object?
Once the customer decides to pay with octifi, the hosted-checkout (octifi-websdk.js) calls the backend to create a checkout object and return a checkout_token to the merchant via callback.
Checkout Api returns a checkout_token
/checkout/create: For details see checkout apis in the Api reference﻿
This api uses a Public API key and normally used in the frontend.
Authorization: Api-Key public_api_key 
Checkout only authorise the payment
What is the difference between checkout and charge?
In a nutshell:
Customer Checkout is step 1
Charge/create is the step 2
Charge/capture is step 3
Notes:
Charge api takes checkout_token as a parameter
Charge capture api should be called from the backend (server side) and requires a private key.
More details about charge are here: ﻿https://docs.sg.latitudepay.com/charges﻿
Api: /charge/create/{checkout_token}/
For details see charge apis in the Api reference﻿
