B2B

This API enables you to pay bills directly from your business account to a pay bill number, or a paybill store. You can use this API to pay on behalf of a consumer/requester.

The transaction moves money from your MMF/Working account to the recipient’s utility account.

Returns a B2bBuilder. Requires an initiator_name, the credential/ username used to authenticate the transaction request
