Here is a simplified UML class diagram to show the main classes I used to design the backend. Please note that this is only a simplified representation. Many other classes are used in the real implementation.

• I am using 3 retries when calling the payment endpoint. If the endpoint is slow or for split second not reachable the user has to wait.
• Frontend performance can be increased with a proper framework. I am using raw js, jquery and including libraries via CDNs.

• I am not validating the data in the backend. When you place a direct CURL request there could be a failure.
• I can definetly improve the frontend. Using a frontend framework and splitting up the application would be more professional.
• I could have implemented a better exception handling solution. Currently throwing a custom exception and handling this exception directly inside the controller.
