If you have integrated payment systems: what was harder than expected?

For others who have integrated with payment processors/gateways/APIs — what has actually been the hardest part in practice?

A few things I’d love to understand from people who’ve done it:

What ended up being more painful than expected?

What breaks most often in production?

Which providers had the best/worst docs or developer experience and why?

How much operational/support burden exists after launch?

What kinds of edge cases surprised you?

What differentiates a “good” payments integration from a painful one?

Not recruiting or selling anything.

The Bank of America app just gave me this dialog box. Great illustration of why a UX expert is needed for creating usable systems.

I apologize to readers for the blinding white image, as BoA doesn't offer dark mode. Another reason to have a dedicated UX role.
