Thousands of people needed live scores during games, plus real-money deposits and withdrawals. Traffic surged when events started, and a payment bug would mean lost money and lost trust.

What I did
Real-time scoring
Socket.io pushes live score updates to thousands of clients at once.
Two payment rails
PayPal and Authorize.net, reconciled against each other.
Transaction integrity
Atomic wallet operations, so balances never drift under concurrent writes.
Spikes
Tuned for the traffic surge at the start of live events.
Limits
Server-side validation on every money movement.
What it does
- Live contests and scoring
- Wallet with deposits and withdrawals
