Learning outcomes

  • Map gateway, PSP, and ledger boundaries with explicit trust assumptions
  • Design settlement samples that detect fee, FX, and retry anomalies
  • Evaluate webhook authenticity, ordering, and idempotency guarantees
  • Write control memos that distinguish proven from hoped-for coverage
  • Prepare a concise evidence index for partner or internal audit review

Modules

  1. Topology & trust boundaries

    Inventory processors, token vaults, and retry workers. Name what each component can and cannot assert.

  2. Settlement file literacy

    Parse fee codes, partial captures, and delayed presentments. Build a repeatable sampling plan.

  3. Fraud signal hygiene

    Review risk score inputs, feedback loops, and silent model drift — without pretending scores are ground truth.

  4. Webhook & idempotency deep dive

    Lab work on signature verification, replay windows, and duplicate capture scenarios.

  5. Control narrative studio

    Draft memos for product, legal, and partner audiences. Peer critique focuses on overclaiming.

  6. Evidence pack & readout

    Assemble an index, prioritize findings, and practice an executive readout under time pressure.

Reviews from this course

“Settlement sampling finally gave finance and platform a shared checklist. Week four homework collided with an on-call rotation — plan for that.”
