    The v1 Intentions API is Paymob's modern entry point for payment
    acceptance. The merchant backend creates an intention with the secret key
    and an array of payment_methods (integration IDs or named methods like
    apple_pay, tabby, tamara, stc_pay, easypaisa, jazzcash). Paymob returns a
    client_secret used to launch the Unified Checkout, render the Pixel
    component, or confirm the payment headlessly.

    key flow plus operations for capture, void, refund, transaction inquiry by
    id or merchant order id, and the V2 Quick Link API for sharable payment
    links. Still actively used by merchants on the standard redirect, iframe,
    and headless MOTO integrations.

    attachment, and transaction inspection. Initial subscription creation
