Questions about RazorPay Payment Failed.

How does the RazorPay Payment Failed trigger work in RazorPay?
Fires when a payment fails. Payload includes reason code and human-readable message. For dunning workflows that branch on failure reason (soft decline → retry email, hard decline → payment-method update prompt).
Is the RazorPay Payment Failed trigger real-time?
Yes. RazorPay Payment Failed uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in RazorPay.
