This verb is used to identify the action of giving a payment for a service, good or object acquired, that is, the payment is the granting of a defined sum of money (defined by the seller) in response to having received a service or any element material that is of your use; At the time a payment has been offered, the recipient of said sum is making a profit by offering that product to the highest bidder, the person who pays is gratified by the purchase of the item he has received.
The payment method has been used for thousands of years; In ancient times there was the boom in the development of mystical sciences among the inhabitants, which gave way to the formation of different religions and beliefs in the same society, the religious then understood as offerings by the supreme being the prosperity that they had and as payment for this they made different sacrifices in his honor; In this way, all the tribes were developing the use of different rituals for the gratitude of each divine deity whom they praised for all the favors that they granted.
The payment can then be seen as an action of thanks or bonus on the part of the recipient (seller), while for the one who is making the payment sees it as a commitment that he acquired with the seller and must grant it without any reservation (buyer). Another factor that plays an important role is the “price” understood as the value that must be paid for the acquisition of the good offered.
