A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed in case you want to acquire an SSL certificate that will encrypt all the payment and login information which will be exchanged between your site and its clients. The CSR contains information about the website plus its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address along with email, company name and unit, etcetera. Based upon this code, an authorized SSL vendor provides you with the certificate, which is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to recognize that they're a trusted issuer. At the time of the CSR generation, a unique private key is also generated and the installation of the SSL involves all of the four codes - both the keys, the certificate and the CSR. After that, you'll be able to use a URL beginning with https:// for your website instead of http:// and the website visitors can view the information that you have provided for the CSR via their Internet browsers.
