create_payment_link
Create a payment link in XOF for Ivory Coast via Paystack. Buyer pays with Orange Money, MTN Mobile Money, Wave, cards — via Paystack. Returns a hosted checkout URL the buyer opens to pay — payment completes automatically, no confirm step. Bring your own credentials via HTTP header (x-paystack-secret-key; free test credentials from dashboard.paystack.com never move real money). Money always flows buyer→Paystack→merchant; this service never touches funds.
