Authentication Mechanism

Before using any CellPay API endpoints, authentication is required via Basic Authentication using a username and password. These credentials are provided by the CellPay team for both production and development environments.

On the first login attempt, a JSON Web Token (JWT) is generated. This token must be included in all subsequent API requests for authentication purposes.
