Can someone explain the payment headers part? Why not just have a header called X-Crawl-Key or something and intercept that header to figure out who to charge for the request?

They have some headers for authentication. The payment part is for the price negotiation. The headers tell you that Cloudflare wants to charge you for this particular content and you tell CF that you're OK with being charhed up to $AMOUNT.
