  title: Puplar Integrations API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Public API for integrators using **secret keys** (`sk_test_*` /
    `sk_live_*`). Authenticated routes need only **`Authorization: Bearer
    <secret_key>`**. Test keys sandbox payments, virtual accounts, KYC, and bank
    resolve — see guides/test-vs-live for fixtures. Responses follow `{ message,
    data?, errors? }`. Includes customers, collections, payments, products,
    invoices, payouts, wallets, virtual accounts, crypto, refunds, and webhooks.
