For each payment option there must also be a payment provider configured that will care about the payment process. You can distinguish two different types of payment processes: Local and remote ones. A local payment process collects the required payment data (if there is any additional data necessary at all) and stores it locally in the shop system. For a remote payment process, the provider redirects the customer to a payment gateway which handles the payment and notifies the shop system about the result of the payment process (usually success or failure).
