Why I get this message on making payment ?- {"message":"Payment amount must exist and not be negative."}

I get this message({"message":"Payment amount must exist and not be negative."}) on using this below API to make payment using custom Tender.

POST /v3/merchants/{mId}/orders/{orderId}/payments
I provide the details(Parameters)

The request looks good, one thing that I would check is that you are passing in the right header for the request, it should be "application/json": 
POST /v3/merchants/T0JQJVBQJTH1Y/orders/0KQ3318TFX4GC/payments HTTP/1.1
Host: https://apisandbox.dev.clover.com
Content-Type: application/json
cache-control: no-cache

I was able to reproduce your issue if I passed in: 
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Response: 
{
    "message": "Payment amount must exist and not be negative."
}
