The indicative effective rate and the estimated settlement amount. Indicative only. The rate that a payment uses is fixed by the merchant lock point.
Authentication
Bearer key. The merchant API key, sk_live_ or sk_test_. It reaches /v1 alone. A test key works from the moment the merchant exists. A live key answers 403 live_not_enabled until the merchant's review opens live mode, before any rate limit is spent.
