A Payment Intent in PayMongo represents a customer’s intent to pay and is used to manage the entire lifecycle of a payment—from creation to confirmation. It’s ideal for situations where the payment method requires additional steps, like authentication or redirection (e.g., GCash or credit card 3DS geometry dash). Developers create a Payment Intent, collect the customer’s payment method, and confirm it to complete the transaction, allowing for a more secure and flexible checkout experience.
