Medusa v2 Payment Orchestrator Plugin
Architected a TypeScript plugin integrating self-hosted payment orchestration into Medusa v2, unifying 50+ payment methods under a single interface.
Overview
E-commerce architectures often face vendor lock-in and fragmented integration logic when managing multiple payment providers. I designed and implemented a TypeScript plugin that integrates a self-hosted payment orchestrator into the Medusa v2 framework. The solution abstracts the complexity of disparate gateway APIs, providing a standardized interface for the full transaction lifecycle: authorization, capture, refunds, and webhook synchronization. By enforcing idempotency and state reconciliation within the plugin, the architecture ensures data sovereignty and rigorous consistency for financial operations. Published as an npm package, this module enables production deployments to scale checkout capabilities across global networks without modifying core application logic.
