For example, two transactions are going to increase the amount on the

transaction increases the amount (this gives $1100) and writes this
value. The second transaction acts the same way: it gets the same $1100
and writes this value. As a result, the customer lost $100.
Will u please provide more details
Serialize is the solution to this issue.
MVCC applies to read and write situation. Readers do not block writers
and writers do not block read. The example you mentioned above is writer
vs writer and MVCC (both Oracle and PG) is not applicable.
