## Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
npm install @wia/cross-border-payment-sdk
```

### Basic Usage

```typescript
import { CrossBorderPaymentClient } from '@wia/cross-border-payment-sdk';

// Initialize client
const client = new CrossBorderPaymentClient({
  apiKey: process.env.WIA_API_KEY,
  environment: 'production'
});

// Create a beneficiary
const beneficiary = await client.createBeneficiary({
  name: 'Jane Smith',
  country: 'PH',
  currency: 'PHP',
  accountNumber: '1234567890',
  bankCode: 'BDO',
  accountType: 'SAVINGS',
  address: {
    street: '123 Makati Ave',
    city: 'Manila',
    postalCode: '1200',
    country: 'PH'
  }
});

// Create a payment
const payment = await client.createPayment({
  beneficiaryId: beneficiary.id,
  amount: 1000,
  currency: 'USD',
  purpose: 'Family support',
  method: 'SWIFT'
});

console.log('Payment ID:', payment.id);
console.log('Status:', payment.status);
console.log('Estimated Delivery:', payment.estimatedDelivery);
```

### Get Payment Status

```typescript
const status = await client.getPayment(payment.id);
console.log('Current Status:', status.status);
console.log('Transaction Reference:', status.transactionReference);
```

### Get FX Rate

```typescript
const rate = await client.getFxRate('USD', 'PHP');
console.log('Exchange Rate:', rate.rate);
console.log('Valid Until:', rate.expiresAt);
```
