With the Ecommerce setting is set to Off, then the Payment page is skipped and the Customer goes directly to the Guest Details or Receipt page, depending on whether you have the Guest Form integration enable or not.
Disabling the Payment page is an option for those looking to offer free Items such as tickets to a free show.
