I don't know anything about the logic:redirect tag, but trying to redirect a POST transaction brings up other issues. The HTTP RFC, as far as I know, doesn't prohibit this behavior, but you are probably going to find browser compatibility problems.
The reason is that GET is mainly for indempotent transactions, whereas POST is not (although POST is often used for indempotent transactions because of disadvantages of GET such as query string length). What if your browser submitted your credit card details to a server, that server sent your browser a redirect, and your browser just went ahead and sent your credit card details on to another server without even asking you for permission? As I understand it, there is some support for POST redirect in newer browsers, so it may be possible, but I would doubt that any browser would do this without popping up some sort of alert for the user.

The fields are auto populated so the user doesn't need to see anything. Does the redirect tag already do this? Any thoughts?
