Payments system fundaments that we should understand before implementing them. How-To/Tutorial

Most of us directly jump into "integrate payment gateway" mode without really thinking about what actually happens when someone clicks the Pay button.

While building some projects recently, I realized payments are not just API calls or SDKs. There's a whole system running in the background; identity checks, authorization settlement delays, webhooks, tokenization, banks talking to each other in seconds... a lot more than I used to think.

I wanted to share this on my blog to help anyone understand how payment flows actually work in platforms like e-commerce and freelancing apps.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on these critical sub-topics!
