If you are going to be processing payments there are requirements that will need to be met that go far beyond just having an SSL certificate. Those requirements get even more stringent if you plan on storing cardholder information. You can find a copy of the standards at https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/ . As for your question, you can just run the entire domain under https if you like. I am assuming you will be using Apache and on any reasonable hardware it will handle it without even raising a sweat assuming you aren't talking about outrageous volume levels. ...Greg
