Redirect WordPress website

Hey guys, I'm kinda in a selection process and I have to do some tasks. One of them is to redirect when a checkout happens on a WooCommerce. They gave me the code that would do it and instructions. Problem is: I don't know PHP, I came with a few ways to do it but don't know if it would lead to any problem as I don't know how PHP code works. This is the code they sent me:

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'conditional_redirection_after_payment');
function conditional_redirection_after_payment(){
    // When "thankyou" order-received page is reached …
    if ( is_wc_endpoint_url( 'order-received' ) ) {
        global $wp;

        // Get the order ID from the browser url
        $order_id =  intval( str_replace( 'checkout/order-received/', '', $wp->request ) );

        // Get an instance of the WC_Order object
        $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

        // If the order status is 'failed' we stop the function
        if( $order->has_status( 'failed' ) ) return;

        // HERE set in the array for each product ID the corresponding url final path
        $product_id_url_paths = array(
            '691' => '/card-reading',
        );
        // Iterating through each order items

        foreach( $order->get_items() as $item_id => $item_values ){
            // The Product ID

            $product_id = $item_values->get_product_id();
            foreach( $product_id_url_paths as $key_id => $url_path ){
                if( $key_id == $product_id ){

                    // Product is found and ID match: we got our path url. We redirect
                    wp_redirect( home_url( $url_path ) );
                    exit(); // always exit
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'conditional_redirection_after_payment');
function conditional_redirection_after_payment(){
    // When "thankyou" order-received page is reached …
    if ( is_wc_endpoint_url( 'order-received' ) ) {
        global $wp;

        // Get the order ID from the browser url
        $order_id =  intval( str_replace( 'checkout/order-received/', '', $wp->request ) );

        // Get an instance of the WC_Order object
        $order = wc_get_order( $order_id );

        // If the order status is 'failed' we stop the function
        if( $order->has_status( 'failed' ) ) return;

        // HERE set in the array for each product ID the corresponding url final path
        $product_id_url_paths = array(
            '691' => '/card-reading',
        );
        // Iterating through each order items

        foreach( $order->get_items() as $item_id => $item_values ){
            // The Product ID

            $product_id = $item_values->get_product_id();
            foreach( $product_id_url_paths as $key_id => $url_path ){
                if( $key_id == $product_id ){

                    // Product is found and ID match: we got our path url. We redirect
                    wp_redirect( home_url( $url_path ) );
                    exit(); // always exit
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I already changed the product ID, I read that I have to put the requested URL to redirect in the "wp_redirect("url")" but I don't know if doing just that would lead to any problems with the rest of the code. I'm sure it will. Please help.

Im guessing the capital HERE means something, not only it is the place where I change the product ID but I'm guessing where I have to tweak the URL. To clarify: "/card-reading" is the example path that I was given, the URL I need to redirect doesn't have a path, is just the plain URL of bbc.
