PaymentTransaction Entity (
apps/payment-service/src/payments/entities/payment-transaction.entity.ts) - Complete audit trail for all payment events
- Raw webhook payload storage
-
Provider event tracking
-
IdempotencyKey Entity (
apps/payment-service/src/payments/entities/idempotency-key.entity.ts) - Prevents duplicate charges
