  • how do i verify that these payment details are valid and money is transferred to merchant account.

You need a third party company to process the payments. PayPal is popular, FDMS, or talk to your bank to see what solutions they offer. Usually these come with an API document or some code libraries to help you start.

And be sure to be aware of PCI-DSS security requirements for merchants. They can make your project more complex than you can solve with code. =)
