Build with AI

Copy one prompt, paste it into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot or any AI assistant, in any language or framework. It tells the assistant how QuataPay works, asks you what you are building, then writes the payment, the signed webhook and a test. It contains no keys: yourQUATAPAY_API_KEYstays in your own environment.

Or open it as a text file, or install it as a skill or rules file for your tool (see Build with AI).

Shorter prompts for one framework

curl -X POST https://api.quatapay.com/api/v1/gateway/sandbox/payments \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $QUATAPAY_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{
    "amount": 5000,
    "currency": "XAF",
    "description": "Order #1042",
    "return_url": "https://your-site.com/pay/return?order=1042"
  }'

One request creates a hosted payment page — no payment form to build.
