Architecture

POS Partner API is a NestJS service providing wallet operations (balance, top-up, settlement) and member lookup for third-party POS terminals (Trident Phase 1).

Stack

Component	Technology
Runtime	NestJS on Node.js 22 (distroless)
Database	PostgreSQL on Tier 2 shared CNPG
ORM	Prisma (pos-data, mca_v1_za, mca_v1_uk)
Auth	x-partner-key header + HMAC member ID validation
External	MCA Xano API (ZA)
Image	registry.digiwedge.com/digiwedge/pos-partner-api

Endpoints

Route prefix	Controller	Purpose
v1/pos/partners	PosPartnersController	Primary Trident contract: lookup, balance, table link, top-up, settlement
pos	PosPartnersCompatibilityController	Compatibility routes for legacy Xano-era integrations
transactional	PosPartnersLegacyBalanceController	Legacy balance endpoints

Settlement model

CRM-linked settlements use an acceptance-anchor model:

• Table-linked settlements are protected by table_links.settlementClaimedBy
• CRM-linked settlements (quoteId / reservationId) admit through settlement_acceptance_anchors
• Idempotency keys are replay keys within an accepted anchor lifecycle
• Claim-token-based submit fencing prevents double-debit races

See the Prisma schema at libs/prisma/pos-data/prisma/schema.prisma for the full data model.

Database

• Logical database: pos_db on tier2-shared (UAT) / tier2-shared-prod (prod)
• Prisma schema: libs/prisma/pos-data/prisma/schema.prisma
• Env var: POS_DATA_DATABASE_URL
• Migrations run via PreSync hook (pre-sync-migrate-job.yaml)

Member resolution

• Member lookup is source-routed by club, not hardcoded to MCA v2.
• Legacy ZA clubs resolve through libs/prisma/mca_v1_za (MCA_SA_LIVE_V1_URL).
• Legacy UK clubs resolve through libs/prisma/mca_v1_uk (MCA_UK_LIVE_V1_URL).
• SCL remains the strategic target member domain, but the card/member bridge is not implemented in pos-partner-api yet.
• Wallet operations remain on the external Xano path today and are intentionally separate from member identity resolution.

Deployment

• UAT: pos-uat namespace, ArgoCD app pos-partner-api
• Prod: pos-prod namespace, ArgoCD app pos-partner-api-prod
• Gateway routes: UAT (pos-partner-api.uat.digiwedge.com), prod (pos-partner-api.digiwedge.com)
• Publish workflow: .github/workflows/pos-partner-api-publish.yml
• Smoke test: tools/scripts/smoke/pos-partner-api.sh
• Reconciliation sync writer: Kubernetes CronJob pos-partner-api-reconciliation-sync
• Replica count is no longer coupled to reconciliation writer ownership
