<Warning>
  **Return URL**

  * After the customer completes the checkout on the OTP page, they are redirected to your `return_url`. This redirection is link-based. For example, if you provide a `return_url` in the format `https://b8af79f41056.eu.ngrok.io?order_id={order_id}`, the customer is redirected to `https://b8af79f41056.eu.ngrok.io?order_id=order_271vfuhh1o4h6bQIigqyOx74YiJ1T`.

  * In production, `cf_status` and `cf_message` may not be included in the `return_url` response, even though they are present in the sandbox.\
    The `return_url` is intended only to redirect customers back to your site after payment. It should not be used to retrieve complete subscription details.

  For accurate and complete data, use webhooks.

  * Configure your webhook URL in the Cashfree Dashboard.
  * Enable the relevant events, such as `SUBSCRIPTION_AUTH_STATUS` and `SUBSCRIPTION_PAYMENT_SUCCESS`.

  Always validate the subscription status through webhook notifications for production-grade reliability.
