Why is it masculine?

Pagamento is masculine because it derives from the Latin "pagamentum," a noun formation from "pagare" (to pay) using the masculine suffix "-mentum," which consistently produced masculine nouns in Latin and carried that gender into Italian. The "-mento" suffix in Italian remains predominantly masculine, making this a regular derivation rather than an exception.
