# ET-PAY-006: PCI-DSS Architecture & Compliance

**Epic:** OQI-005 - Payments & Stripe
**Blocker:** BLOCKER-002 (ST4.2)
**Prioridad:** P0 - CRÍTICO
**Estado:** ✅ Implemented

---

## Resumen Ejecutivo

Arquitectura de pagos 100% PCI-DSS compliant usando Stripe como Payment Service Provider (PSP). El sistema **NUNCA maneja datos de tarjeta directamente**, delegando toda la tokenización y procesamiento a Stripe mediante Payment Intents y Elements.

---

## PCI-DSS Compliance Level

**Nivel:** SAQ-A (Self-Assessment Questionnaire A)

**Justificación:**
- Usamos Stripe como PSP hosted
- NO almacenamos, procesamos ni transmitimos datos de tarjeta
- Datos sensibles NUNCA tocan nuestros servidores
- Toda tokenización se hace vía Stripe.js client-side

**Resultado:** Menor carga de compliance (22 requisitos vs 300+ de PCI-DSS completo)

## Flujos de Pago Implementados

### 1. One-Time Payment (Deposit to Wallet)

**Componente:** `DepositForm.tsx`

**Flujo:**

```typescript
// STEP 1: User fills amount
const [amount, setAmount] = useState(100);

// STEP 2: Render Stripe CardElement (hosted iframe)
<CardElement options={cardElementOptions} />

// STEP 3: Submit → Create Payment Intent backend
const response = await fetch('/api/v1/payments/wallet/deposit', {
  method: 'POST',
  body: JSON.stringify({
    amount: 100,
    currency: 'USD',
  }),
});

const { clientSecret } = await response.json();

// STEP 4: Confirm payment with Stripe
const { error, paymentIntent } = await stripe.confirmCardPayment(
  clientSecret,
  {
    payment_method: {
      card: cardElement,  // ← Stripe.js handles card data
    },
  }
);

// STEP 5: Success → Webhook updates database
if (paymentIntent.status === 'succeeded') {
  // Show success message
}
```

**Backend (stripe.service.ts):**

```typescript
async createPaymentIntent(
  userId: string,
  amount: number,
  currency: string = 'usd',
  metadata: Record<string, string> = {}
): Promise<Stripe.PaymentIntent> {
  const customer = await this.getOrCreateCustomer(userId, email);

  const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
    amount: Math.round(amount * 100), // Convert to cents
    currency,
    customer: customer.stripeCustomerId,
    metadata: { userId, ...metadata },
    // NO card data here!
  });

  return paymentIntent;
}
```

**Archivo:** `apps/frontend/src/modules/investment/components/DepositForm.tsx`

**Estado:** ✅ PCI-DSS Compliant

---

### 2. Add Payment Method (Recurring Payments)

**Componente:** Stripe Customer Portal (hosted)

**Flujo:**

```typescript
// STEP 1: User clicks "Add Payment Method"
<button onClick={openBillingPortal}>
  <Plus /> Agregar
</button>

// STEP 2: Backend creates billing portal session
async function openBillingPortal(): Promise<void> {
  const response = await apiClient.post('/payments/billing-portal');
  const { url } = response.data;

  // STEP 3: Redirect to Stripe hosted portal
  window.location.href = url;
}

// STEP 4: User adds card in Stripe portal
// (completely hosted by Stripe, NOT our domain)

// STEP 5: Stripe redirects back to our app
// return_url = 'https://our-app.com/billing'

// STEP 6: Webhook updates payment methods
// event: customer.payment_method.attached
```

**Backend (stripe.service.ts):**

```typescript
async createBillingPortalSession(userId: string): Promise<string> {
  const customer = await this.getOrCreateCustomer(userId, email);

  const session = await stripe.billingPortal.sessions.create({
    customer: customer.stripeCustomerId,
    return_url: `${process.env.FRONTEND_URL}/billing`,
  });

  return session.url;
}
```

**Archivo:** `apps/frontend/src/modules/payments/pages/Billing.tsx` (líneas 214-220)

**Estado:** ✅ PCI-DSS Compliant

---

## Componentes Frontend

### ✅ SEGURO: StripeElementsWrapper

**Archivo:** `apps/frontend/src/components/payments/StripeElementsWrapper.tsx`

**Propósito:** Provider para Stripe Elements (React Context)

**Features:**
- Carga Stripe.js desde CDN oficial
- Configura tema oscuro customizado
- Maneja errores y loading states
- HOC `withStripeElements()` para wrapping

**Uso:**

```typescript
import { StripeElementsWrapper } from '@/components/payments';

<StripeElementsWrapper clientSecret={clientSecret}>
  <YourPaymentForm />
</StripeElementsWrapper>
```

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant

---

### ✅ SEGURO: DepositForm

**Archivo:** `apps/frontend/src/modules/investment/components/DepositForm.tsx`

**Propósito:** Formulario de depósito a wallet con Stripe CardElement

**Features:**
- Usa `<CardElement>` de `@stripe/react-stripe-js`
- Llama Payment Intent backend
- Confirma pago con `stripe.confirmCardPayment()`
- NO maneja datos de tarjeta en estado

**Código clave:**

```typescript
import { CardElement, useStripe, useElements } from '@stripe/react-stripe-js';

// Render card input (Stripe hosted iframe)
<CardElement options={cardElementOptions} />

// Confirm payment
const cardElement = elements.getElement(CardElement);
const { error, paymentIntent } = await stripe.confirmCardPayment(
  clientSecret,
  {
    payment_method: {
      card: cardElement,  // ← Stripe.js handles tokenization
    },
  }
);
```

**Mensaje de seguridad (línea 260):**
> "Your payment is secured by Stripe. We never store your card details."

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant

---

### ✅ SEGURO: Billing Page

**Archivo:** `apps/frontend/src/modules/payments/pages/Billing.tsx`

**Propósito:** Gestión de suscripciones, métodos de pago, facturas

**Features:**
- Usa Stripe Customer Portal para agregar métodos de pago
- Lista métodos de pago existentes (solo últimos 4 dígitos)
- Gestión de suscripciones
- Wallet management

**Código clave:**

```typescript
// Add payment method → Redirect to Stripe portal
<button onClick={openBillingPortal}>
  <Plus /> Agregar
</button>
```

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant

---

### ❌ ELIMINADO: PaymentMethodForm (Legacy)

**Archivo:** `src/components/payments/PaymentMethodForm.tsx` (DELETED)

**Razón de eliminación:**
- ❌ Violaba PCI-DSS Requirement 3 (almacenaba PAN, CVV, expiración en estado)
- ❌ Violaba PCI-DSS Requirement 4 (enviaba datos raw al backend)
- ❌ Violaba PCI-DSS Requirement 6 (código inseguro)

**Commit:** `3f98938` (ST4.2.1)

**Estado:** ❌ ELIMINADO (código inseguro)

---

## Backend Implementation

### 1. Payment Intents

**Archivo:** `apps/backend/src/modules/payments/services/stripe.service.ts`

**Métodos:**

```typescript
/**
 * Create Payment Intent (server-side)
 * Returns clientSecret to frontend
 */
async createPaymentIntent(
  userId: string,
  amount: number,
  currency: string = 'usd',
  metadata: Record<string, string> = {}
): Promise<Stripe.PaymentIntent> {
  const customer = await this.getOrCreateCustomer(userId, email);

  const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
    amount: Math.round(amount * 100),
    currency,
    customer: customer.stripeCustomerId,
    metadata: { userId, ...metadata },
    automatic_payment_methods: {
      enabled: true,
    },
  });

  return paymentIntent;
}

/**
 * Confirm Payment Intent (server-side, optional)
 * Used for server-side confirmation flows
 */
async confirmPaymentIntent(
  paymentIntentId: string
): Promise<Stripe.PaymentIntent> {
  const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.confirm(paymentIntentId);
  return paymentIntent;
}
```

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant (no maneja datos de tarjeta)

---

### 2. Webhooks

**Archivo:** `apps/backend/src/modules/payments/controllers/payments.controller.ts`

**Handler:**

```typescript
export async function handleStripeWebhook(
  req: Request,
  res: Response,
  next: NextFunction
): Promise<void> {
  try {
    // CRITICAL: Verify webhook signature
    const signature = req.headers['stripe-signature'] as string;
    const event = stripeService.constructWebhookEvent(req.body, signature);

    switch (event.type) {
      case 'payment_intent.succeeded': {
        const paymentIntent = event.data.object as Stripe.PaymentIntent;
        await handlePaymentSuccess(paymentIntent);
        break;
      }

      case 'payment_intent.payment_failed': {
        const paymentIntent = event.data.object as Stripe.PaymentIntent;
        await handlePaymentFailure(paymentIntent);
        break;
      }

      case 'customer.subscription.created':
      case 'customer.subscription.updated': {
        const subscription = event.data.object as Stripe.Subscription;
        await handleSubscriptionUpdate(subscription);
        break;
      }

      case 'customer.subscription.deleted': {
        const subscription = event.data.object as Stripe.Subscription;
        await handleSubscriptionCancellation(subscription);
        break;
      }

      case 'invoice.paid': {
        const invoice = event.data.object as Stripe.Invoice;
        await handleInvoicePaid(invoice);
        break;
      }

      case 'invoice.payment_failed': {
        const invoice = event.data.object as Stripe.Invoice;
        await handleInvoicePaymentFailed(invoice);
        break;
      }

      default:
        console.log(`Unhandled event type: ${event.type}`);
    }

    res.json({ received: true });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Webhook error:', error);
    next(error);
  }
}
```

**Seguridad:**
- ✅ Verifica firma del webhook usando `stripe.webhooks.constructEvent()`
- ✅ Usa endpoint secret (`STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET`)
- ✅ Previene webhook spoofing

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant

---

### 3. Routes

**Archivo:** `apps/backend/src/modules/payments/payments.routes.ts`

```typescript
// Webhook endpoint (raw body required for signature verification)
router.post('/webhook', express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }), handleStripeWebhook);

// Payment Intent creation
router.post('/wallet/deposit', authenticate, createDepositPaymentIntent);

// Billing portal
router.post('/billing-portal', authenticate, createBillingPortalSession);
```

**PCI-DSS:** ✅ Compliant

---

## Common Violations (❌ AVOID)

### ❌ NUNCA HAGAS ESTO:

#### 1. Inputs Directos para Datos de Tarjeta

```typescript
// ❌ WRONG: PCI-DSS VIOLATION
<input
  type="text"
  value={cardNumber}
  onChange={(e) => setCardNumber(e.target.value)}
  placeholder="1234 5678 9012 3456"
/>
```

**Por qué está mal:**
- Datos de tarjeta en memoria (estado React)
- Tu código JavaScript puede acceder al PAN
- Violación PCI-DSS Requirement 3

#### 2. Enviar Datos Raw al Backend

```typescript
// ❌ WRONG: PCI-DSS VIOLATION
await fetch('/api/payments', {
  method: 'POST',
  body: JSON.stringify({
    cardNumber: '4242424242424242',
    cvv: '123',
    expMonth: '12',
    expYear: '2025',
  }),
});
```

**Por qué está mal:**
- Datos sensibles en network request
- Tu backend recibe PAN completo
- Violación PCI-DSS Requirement 4

#### 3. Almacenar Datos de Tarjeta

```typescript
// ❌ WRONG: PCI-DSS VIOLATION
localStorage.setItem('cardNumber', cardNumber);
```

**Por qué está mal:**
- Persistencia de datos sensibles
- Accesible vía JavaScript
- Violación PCI-DSS Requirement 3

---

## ✅ Best Practices

### 1. Usar Stripe Elements

```typescript
// ✅ CORRECT: PCI-DSS COMPLIANT
import { CardElement } from '@stripe/react-stripe-js';

<CardElement options={cardElementOptions} />
```

**Por qué está bien:**
- Stripe.js maneja datos de tarjeta en iframe
- Tu código NUNCA toca el PAN
- Stripe hace la tokenización

### 2. Payment Intents Server-Side

```typescript
// ✅ CORRECT: Backend creates Payment Intent
const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
  amount: 1000,
  currency: 'usd',
  customer: customerId,
});

// Return ONLY clientSecret to frontend
res.json({ clientSecret: paymentIntent.client_secret });
```

**Por qué está bien:**
- Backend controla el monto (no puede ser manipulado)
- Frontend solo recibe clientSecret (no es sensible)

### 3. Confirmar Pago Client-Side

```typescript
// ✅ CORRECT: Frontend confirms with Stripe
const { error, paymentIntent } = await stripe.confirmCardPayment(
  clientSecret,
  {
    payment_method: {
      card: cardElement,  // Stripe.js maneja tokenización
    },
  }
);
```

**Por qué está bien:**
- Datos de tarjeta solo van a Stripe (nunca a tu backend)
- Stripe retorna PaymentMethod ID tokenizado

---

## Testing Guide

### Unit Tests

```typescript
// Test: Payment Intent creation
it('should create payment intent with correct amount', async () => {
  const intent = await stripeService.createPaymentIntent(
    userId,
    100.00,
    'usd',
    { type: 'wallet_deposit' }
  );

  expect(intent.amount).toBe(10000); // $100 = 10000 cents
  expect(intent.currency).toBe('usd');
  expect(intent.customer).toBe(stripeCustomerId);
});

// Test: Webhook signature validation
it('should reject webhook with invalid signature', async () => {
  const invalidSignature = 'fake_signature';

  const response = await request(app)
    .post('/api/v1/payments/webhook')
    .set('stripe-signature', invalidSignature)
    .send(webhookPayload);

  expect(response.status).toBe(400);
});
```

### E2E Tests (Playwright)

```typescript
// Test: Deposit flow
test('should complete deposit with valid card', async ({ page }) => {
  // 1. Navigate to deposit page
  await page.goto('/investment/deposit');

  // 2. Fill amount
  await page.fill('[name="amount"]', '100');

  // 3. Fill Stripe CardElement (test mode)
  const cardFrame = page.frameLocator('iframe[name^="__privateStripeFrame"]');
  await cardFrame.locator('[name="cardnumber"]').fill('4242424242424242');
  await cardFrame.locator('[name="exp-date"]').fill('12/25');
  await cardFrame.locator('[name="cvc"]').fill('123');

  // 4. Submit
  await page.click('button[type="submit"]');

  // 5. Verify success
  await expect(page.locator('text=Deposit Successful')).toBeVisible();
});
```

### Manual Testing (Stripe Test Mode)

**Test Cards:**
- **Success:** `4242 4242 4242 4242`
- **Declined:** `4000 0000 0000 0002`
- **Auth Required:** `4000 0025 0000 3155`

**CVC:** Any 3 digits (123)
**Expiry:** Any future date (12/25)

---

## Monitoring & Logging

### Metrics to Track

```typescript
// Payment success rate
payment_success_rate = successful_payments / total_attempts

// Average processing time
payment_processing_time_avg

// Webhook processing time
webhook_processing_time_avg

// Failed payments by reason
payment_failures_by_reason
```

### Logs (Safe)

```typescript
// ✅ SAFE TO LOG
console.log('[PAYMENT] Payment Intent created', {
  userId,
  amount: paymentIntent.amount,
  currency: paymentIntent.currency,
  paymentIntentId: paymentIntent.id,
  timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
});

// ❌ NEVER LOG
console.log('[PAYMENT] Card details', {
  cardNumber: '4242...',  // ❌ NO
  cvv: '123',             // ❌ NO
});
```

---

## Developer Guidelines

### Adding New Payment Flow

1. **Design flow:**
   - Identify if one-time or recurring
   - Choose: Payment Intent (one-time) or Setup Intent (recurring)

2. **Frontend:**
   - Use `StripeElementsWrapper` + `CardElement`
   - Never create custom inputs for card data
   - Call backend to create Intent
   - Confirm with `stripe.confirmCardPayment()`

3. **Backend:**
   - Create Payment Intent server-side
   - Return `clientSecret` only
   - Handle webhook for success/failure

4. **Test:**
   - Use Stripe test cards
   - Verify webhook received
   - Check database updated correctly

### Code Review Checklist

- [ ] NO custom inputs for card data
- [ ] Uses CardElement or Customer Portal
- [ ] Payment Intent created server-side
- [ ] Webhook signature validated
- [ ] No sensitive data in logs
- [ ] Tests pass (unit + E2E)
- [ ] PCI-DSS compliant
