#### ✅ What Are Webhooks?

Webhooks are **HTTP callbacks** that Paymento sends to your backend when a payment-related event occurs. Paymento webhooks allow you to receive real-time notifications about events that happen in your payment links. When an event occurs, Paymento sends an HTTP POST request to the webhook URL you configured for your payment link.
