"We had received your payment" vs "We already received your payment"

Both phrases are correct, but they convey slightly different meanings. 'We had received your payment' implies that the payment was received at a specific point in the past, while 'We already received your payment' emphasizes that the payment has been received by now. The choice between the two depends on the context and the specific timing you want to convey.
