  const formData = new FormData();
  formData.append('file', file);
  
  const response = await fetch('/api/v1/billing/upload-proof/', {
    method: 'POST',
    body: formData,
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}`,
    },
  });
  
  const data = await response.json();
  return data.url; // S3 URL
};

Support & Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: "Payment methods not loading"

• Cause: Country code not recognized or no methods configured
• Solution: Check backend PaymentMethodConfig table, ensure country_code='*' or matches user's country

Issue: "Banner not showing for pending_payment account"

• Cause: Account status not refreshed or dismissed in session
• Solution: Clear sessionStorage key 'payment-banner-dismissed', refresh page

Issue: "Payment confirmation fails"

• Cause: Missing required fields or invalid invoice_id
• Solution: Check browser console for error details, verify invoice exists and is pending

Issue: "TypeScript errors on Input component"

• Cause: Input component doesn't support 'required' prop
• Solution: Remove 'required' prop, validation handled in form submit
