The Quotes API provides an endpoint that allows you to generate payment requirements for payments you want to make to your beneficiaries with Waza's API.

curl --request POST \
     --url https://api.waza.co/api/quote \
     --header 'accept: application/json' \
     --header 'waza-x-key: your-api-key' \
     --header 'content-type: application/json' \
     --data '
{
     "sendCurrency": "NGN",
     "receiveCurrency": "GHS",
     "amount": "100000"
}
'

const https = require('https')

const params = JSON.stringify({
     "sendCurrency": "NGN",
     "receiveCurrency": "GHS",
     "amount": "100000"
})

const options = {
  hostname: 'api.waza.co',
  port: 443,
  path: '/api/quotes',
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'x-waza-key': 'YOUR-API-KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
}

const req = https.request(options, res => {
  let data = ''

  res.on('data', (chunk) => {
    data += chunk
  });

  res.on('end', () => {
    console.log(JSON.parse(data))
  })
}).on('error', error => {
  console.error(error)
})

req.write(params)
req.end()

A successful Quotes API call should return a similar response structure as seen below:
