on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily

wait for confirmations
has anyone been asked to pay a second time
i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one

is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does
work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution

check the total
no chargebacks
a wrong network transfer is gone. nobody can get it back for you and nobody here will try
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
i have had a payment confirm and the order not update for two days. it resolved with one polite message
sent to the wrong network, is there any way back
