Do I need a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate if I use Payflow Link?

If you are using Payflow Link to collect all online payment information, you do not need an SSL certificate or additional server/communication security. Because customers input their credit card information directly into the order form hosted on a secure PayPal server, credit card information is not transmitted over the internet and therefore does not need SSL.
