## External Services  
This plugin connects to Monnify’s external payment gateway API to securely process payments made through the WooCommerce checkout page. It uses Monnify’s JavaScript SDK to initiate and manage payment transactions.  

**What data is sent and when:**  
When a customer initiates payment at checkout, the plugin loads the Monnify JavaScript SDK (`https://sdk.monnify.com/plugin/monnify.js`) and sends necessary transaction details (amount, customer name, email, transaction reference) to Monnify's API.  

**Why this data is sent:**  
To facilitate real-time payment processing via Monnify's secure infrastructure.
