Real-time transaction monitoring

Stop guessing why payments fail. Use `get_transaction_status` to pull live details on specific records or `list_payment_transactions` to audit recent activity across your merchant accounts. Everything happens inside your chat window. You can even run `check_api_health` to verify your connection before you start digging into the numbers.

Automated payout operations

Manage your disbursements by calling `initiate_payout_request` directly from the interface. You can track progress later using `get_payout_status` or pull a full history with `list_disbursement_payouts`. Keep your books clean by reviewing `list_account_settlements` whenever you need to reconcile bank activity. It turns manual accounting into a quick conversation.

Proactive merchant engagement

Improve your retention by running `get_account_performance_metrics` to spot at-risk merchants. When you identify a trend, use `send_engagement_notification` to alert them instantly via SMS or email. You can also manage your automated triggers by calling `list_configured_webhooks` to see what's currently active. If a mistake happens, `initiate_payment_refund` lets you fix it immediately.
