wcag 3.3.4

Looking for a sanity check - imagine a screen with fields: credit card
#, month and year of expiration, and postal code. The Place Order
button is disabled until all fields are completed and validated (e.g.,
if the CC # is incorrect, a message is dynamically displayed). Once
the Place Order button is pressed, the order is in fact being placed,
and there is text letting the user know this is the case.

Based on WCAG 3.3.4, one of the following must be true:
1) Reversible: Submissions are reversible.
2) Checked: Data entered by the user is checked for input errors and
the user is provided an opportunity to correct them.
3) Confirmed: A mechanism is available for reviewing, confirming, and
correcting information before finalizing the submission.

Based on this, I am saying this meets 3.3.4, specifically #2. Am I on track?
