Bank transfer, saved cards and mandates

Checkout now offers bank transfer. Transfers for the wrong amount, or too late, are held for you (/v1/held-transfers). Also new: customer bank accounts, saved cards (/v1/payment-methods), GTBank direct-debit mandates (/v1/mandates), and subscriptions that collect by card or mandate.

Webhooks for the new flows

New events: transfer.held, transfer.accepted, transfer.returned, transfer.refunded_by_provider, payment_method.saved, payment_method.removed, mandate.active and mandate.cancelled.

Payout approvals

A single payout above ₦1,000,000, and every batch, waits until a team member other than the one who made it approves it with a code from their authenticator app.
