//Initialize the SDK with your Paystack public key (found in your Paystack developer account dashboard)

//Add customer card information
await this.paystack.addCard({
  cardNumber: String(cardNumber),

  expiryYear: String(expiryYear),
  cvv: String(cvv)
});
//Add the email to charge
await this.paystack.setChargeEmail({email: "email@address.com"});
//Set the amount to charge the card (in kobo)
await this.paystack.setChargeAmount({amount: '1000000'});
//Optionally add custom fields, metadata and charge parameters (more information in the Paystack docs)
await this.paystack.putChargeCustomFields({customField1: "field1", customField2: "field2"});
await this.paystack.putChargeMetadata({metaData1: "meta1", metaData2: "meta2"});
