create_payment_link
Create a payment link in EGP for Egypt via Paymob. Buyer pays with cards, mobile wallets (Vodafone Cash and others) via Paymob. Returns a hosted checkout URL the buyer opens to pay — payment completes automatically, no confirm step. Bring your own credentials via HTTP header (x-paymob-api-key; free test credentials from accept.paymob.com never move real money). Money always flows buyer→Paymob→merchant; this service never touches funds.
