Is a timeout applicable on transactions?

Yes, you can track the status of the checkout modal. You can do this by passing a modal object with ondismiss: function(){} as options. The ondismiss function is called when the modal is closed by the user.

Javascript

       var options = {
           "key": "<YOUR_KEY_ID>", // Enter the Key ID generated from the Dashboard
           "amount": "29935",
           "name": "Acme Corp",
           "description": "A Wild Sheep Chase is the third novel by Japanese author Haruki Murakami",
           "order_id": "order_Dd3Wbag7QXDuuL",
           "image": "http://example.com/your_logo.jpg",
           "handler": function (response){
               alert(response.razorpay_payment_id);
},
           /**
* You can track the modal lifecycle by * adding the below code in your options
*/
           "modal": {
               "ondismiss": function(){
                   console.log('Checkout form closed');
}
}
};
       var rzp1 = new Razorpay(options);

You can utilise the handler function called on every successful transaction for tracking payment completion.

What is the difference between webhooks and callback URLs?

You can use the Callback URL and webhook to get the status of the transaction for a payment source.

Particulars	Webhooks	Callback URL
About	Webhooks allow you to build or set up integrations that subscribe to certain events on Razorpay APIs. When one of those events is triggered, we send an HTTP POST payload in JSON to the webhook’s configured URL. Know more about webhooks.	A callback URL is an address that a server provides, and any computer in the Internet/private network can POST data to it. For Razorpay integrations, the callback URL is the address at which Razorpay should send the transaction response. You can pass the URL in the `https://<domain_name_callback_url>` format in the `callback_url` request parameter. Know more about callback URL.
When to use	Use webhooks to receive real-time notifications when specific events occur. For example, receive notifications upon payment failure.	Use callback URL to redirect your customers to a particular page. For example: You can send customers to a payment success page after successful payment. This page will receive payment details such as the payment id. The Razorpay Checkout pop-up page does not appear in certain browsers, for example, on Facebook and Instagram browsers. In such cases, you can use the callback URL to redirect customers from your Facebook/Instagram page to another page where the Razorpay Checkout appears. Customers can complete the payments on this redirected page.
