Answer 5

You can check if a function exists using window

For example

var fn = window['NameOfTheFunction']; 
if(typeof fn === 'function') {
    doSomething();
}

If your function in payment.js is part of a self contained function, you need to set it to so the window object can "see" it by adding this in your self contained function:

window.NameOfTheFunction = NameOfTheFunction;
