    A payment is compensation for a debt, and a donation is a gift. The word pay is often used when the compensation is compulsory.

      A payment is the tender of something of value, such as money or its equivalent, by one party to another in exchange for goods or services provided by them, or to fulfill a legal obligation or philanthropy desire.
