Payments are where gaming platforms succeed or fail. A broken deposit flow doesn't just cost you a transaction — it costs you the player, permanently.

Abstract the provider

Never couple your product code to a specific gateway. Wrap CCPayment, APay, F2Pay, and Paykassma behind a single internal interface. When rates change or a provider has an outage, you route around it.

• Idempotent deposit and withdrawal APIs
• Webhook reconciliation with exactly-once semantics
• Multi-currency wallet with daily FX settlement
• PCI-scope minimization — tokens in, tokens out

Compliance from day one

KYC thresholds, AML flags, geographic restrictions — bake them into the payment pipeline, not the UI layer. Legal will thank you later.

Reconciliation or bust

Every transaction must have three independent records: provider webhook, wallet ledger, and audit log. If any two disagree, freeze the account and alert. Silence is where fraud lives.
