#Payments
Payment systems require idempotency, audit trails, and strict regulatory compliance. These articles cover UPI integration with NPCI, idempotent payment processing patterns, Kafka-based settlement pipelines, and the engineering controls needed to handle financial transactions reliably at scale.

The transaction engine had to absorb 30K+ TPS across partner integrations, never lose a transaction, and survive partial failures. The architecture: Go, Kafka, Pub/Sub, Redis, K8s, with idempotency at every layer.
A single layer of idempotency will eventually fail. Three independent layers gives you a margin. Here is the pattern that worked across ingest, worker, and emit boundaries.
UPI, IMPS, NEFT, RTGS — which rail depends on amount, urgency, and success history. A deterministic chooser with a HITL gate for high-value transactions.
UPI is the most popular payment rail in India. The spec is precise. The implementation guides are not. Notes on the integration details that ate weeks the first time.
