The first step to gaining payment services experience is to learn the basic concepts and terminology of the industry. You should familiarize yourself with the different types of payment methods, such as credit cards, debit cards, e-wallets, prepaid cards, and cryptocurrencies. You should also understand how payment systems work, such as the roles of issuers, acquirers, networks, gateways, and merchants. You can find online courses, books, podcasts, and blogs that cover these topics and provide useful insights.

As you use your card in different circumstances, try to ask yourself what happens from the point you either insert or tap the card , or use your online checkout page to the point that you see the statement on your credit card account.

2 Volunteer for a project

Another way to gain payment services experience is to volunteer for a project that involves payment integration, testing, or optimization. You can look for opportunities in your current organization, your network, or online platforms that connect volunteers with nonprofits or social enterprises. For example, you could help a charity set up a donation page, a local business improve its checkout process, or a community group accept digital payments. This way, you can apply your skills, learn from others, and make a positive impact.

This is the best way to learn. Why? - Because you aren't getting your insights by reading resources or listening to people. - You learn by doing and not by reading - You gain deeper insights - You have the opportunity to make mistakes, since you're volunteering the stakes aren't that high and you can afford rookie mistakes and learn faster.

3 Build your own app

If you have some coding skills, you can also gain payment services experience by building your own app that incorporates a payment feature. You can use various tools and APIs that enable you to accept and process payments, such as Stripe, PayPal, Braintree, or Square. You can create an app that solves a problem, showcases your creativity, or demonstrates your expertise. For example, you could create an app that sells your products or services, facilitates peer-to-peer payments, or rewards users for certain actions.

4 Join a hackathon

A hackathon is a competitive event where teams of developers, designers, and innovators collaborate to create a prototype of a solution for a specific challenge or theme. Hackathons are great ways to gain payment services experience, as they often involve integrating payments into the solutions. You can join a hackathon that focuses on payment innovation, fintech, or e-commerce, or find one that allows you to use payment APIs or platforms. You can learn new skills, network with professionals, and showcase your talent.

What's better than learning alone? Learning with a group of people who are as excited as you to make it! This is a good way to learn as the risk is low, support is ample and you have guidance from experts who know what they are doing. Plus, when you're in a group and focused on improving what usually happens is you learn from each other's mistakes. This is also a faster way to network and build the initial connections that will later help you network and grow.

5 Get certified

Another way to gain payment services experience is to get certified by a reputable organization or institution that offers training and accreditation in payment-related topics. For example, you could get certified by the Electronic Transactions Association (ETA), the global trade association for the payments industry, or the Association for Financial Professionals (AFP), the professional society for treasury and finance professionals. Getting certified can help you validate your skills, enhance your resume, and increase your credibility.

Experience in real life examples is the way you learn. I know is difficult but hard skills of dealing with real problems and challenges is priceless less.
