const payment = this.paystack.payment(<NSPaymentParams>{
    amount: 500000, // In Kobo
    email: "[email protected]",
    number: "4084084084084081",
    cvc: "408",
    year: 2019,
    month: 3
});

payment
    // Add metadata
    .addMetadata("Hello", "World")
    // Add custom data fields
    .addCustomField("Author", "Anonymous");

// Listen on when validation modal comes up
payment.on(NSPayment.openDialogEvent, () => {
    console.log(NSPayment.openDialogEvent);
});

// Listen on when validation modal goes out
payment.on(NSPayment.closeDialogEvent, () => {
    console.log(NSPayment.closeDialogEvent);
});

payment
    .charge()
    .then(({ reference }) => {
        alert(`Reference: ${reference}`);
    })
    .catch(({ code, message, reference }) => {
        alert(`An error occured`);
        console.log(`Code: ${code}`);
