# create_checkout

Create a signed, single-purpose checkout link (30-minute expiry) for one gift to one country. The schema has no recipient fields on purpose: name, address, phone, delivery details and payment are collected on the secure page. Show the returned summary and get the user's explicit confirmation before sharing the link. Use the same idempotency_key when retrying.
