payment-gateway-integration
Integrates payment processing with Stripe, PayPal, or Square including subscriptions, webhooks, and PCI compliance. Use when implementing checkout flows, recurring billing, or handling refunds and disputes.
What this skill does
# Payment Gateway Integration
Integrate secure payment processing with proper error handling and compliance.
## Stripe Integration (Node.js)
```javascript
const stripe = require('stripe')(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
class PaymentService {
async createPaymentIntent(amount, currency, customerId) {
return stripe.paymentIntents.create({
amount: Math.round(amount * 100), // Convert to cents
currency,
customer: customerId,
automatic_payment_methods: { enabled: true }
});
}
async createSubscription(customerId, priceId) {
return stripe.subscriptions.create({
customer: customerId,
items: [{ price: priceId }],
payment_behavior: 'default_incomplete',
expand: ['latest_invoice.payment_intent']
});
}
async refund(paymentIntentId, amount = null) {
const params = { payment_intent: paymentIntentId };
if (amount) params.amount = Math.round(amount * 100);
return stripe.refunds.create(params);
}
}
```
## Webhook Handling
```javascript
app.post('/webhooks/stripe', express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }), (req, res) => {
const sig = req.headers['stripe-signature'];
let event;
try {
event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(req.body, sig, process.env.STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET);
} catch (err) {
return res.status(400).send(`Webhook Error: ${err.message}`);
}
switch (event.type) {
case 'payment_intent.succeeded':
await handlePaymentSuccess(event.data.object);
break;
case 'invoice.payment_failed':
await handlePaymentFailed(event.data.object);
break;
}
res.json({ received: true });
});
```
## PayPal Integration
See [references/paypal-integration.md](references/paypal-integration.md) for complete PayPal implementation with:
- Order creation and capture
- Refund processing
- Webhook handling
- Frontend SDK integration
- Success/cancel callbacks
## Security Checklist
- [ ] Use official SDK only
- [ ] Verify webhook signatures
- [ ] Never log full card numbers
- [ ] Store minimal payment data
- [ ] Test in sandbox first
- [ ] HTTPS for all payment routes
- [ ] Handle all error cases
- [ ] Use idempotency keys
- [ ] Implement retry logic
## Best Practices
**Do:**
- Use official SDK libraries
- Verify all webhook signatures
- Log transaction IDs (not card data)
- Test in sandbox environment
- Handle all payment states
- Implement proper error messages
**Don't:**
- Process raw card data directly
- Store sensitive payment info
- Hardcode API keys
- Skip webhook signature validation
- Ignore failed payment events
- Use test keys in production

process-mapper
IncludedUse when a BizOps lead, COO, or process-improvement owner needs to document an end-to-end business process (procurement, employee onboarding, incident handoff, customer-onboarding, claims adjudication) in BPMN-style notation, measure cycle times by stage, surface where work spends most of its time waiting vs. being worked, and quantify the gap between processing time and total elapsed time. Pairs Lean / Six Sigma / Theory-of-Constraints canon with deterministic stdlib-only Python tools to produce a process map, a ranked bottleneck list (with severity + root-cause hypothesis), and a cycle-time analysis (P50, P90, value-add ratio, Little's-Law throughput). Distinct from sales-pipeline, system-reliability (SLO), and strategic-OKR work — this is tactical process documentation for internal operations.
