​
Base URL

The Orcuspay API is built on REST principles. All communication is over HTTPS. All requests use the following base URL: 
https://brain.orcuspay.com/api/v1

​
Authentication

Every request must include your API key and secret, available from your Orcuspay dashboard. Include them as request headers: 
x-api-key:    <your-access-key>
x-api-secret: <your-secret-key>
Your keys are prefixed with the mode they belong to — keys starting with ak_prod_ / sk_prod_ are for live payments, and ak_test_ / sk_test_ are for test mode. Never expose your secret key in client-side code.

Rate Limiting
