Most likely, the problem is that your backend links various
resources (e.g., images) using "/app/" url prefix, while
externally visible prefix is "/payment/".

Simpliest and most reliable solution is to fix/change backend to use
links you need (many apps have configuration options like
"baseurl" or something like this).

As a hack/workaround, you may also try changing prefix using nginx
itself, e.g., using sub_filter[1]. This approach may have
problems and not recommended though.
