# Create Checkout

`POST /public/user/checkout/create`

This endpoint creates a checkout for the authenticated user based on the provided data. It supports
different payment platforms, promotional codes, and can handle both one-time and recurring payments.
You can either specify a `product_code` directly or supply the traditional combination of
`product_type`, `country_id`, and `product_protocol`.

**Important considerations**
- If `product_code` is provided alongside `product_type`/`country_id`/`product_protocol`, their values must match the actual product attributes.
- If the invoice amount remaining is `0`, it means your available credit fully covered the cost and the service is considered immediately paid.
- If the invoice needs payment, you will be returned an `invoice_url` to complete checkout.

## Headers

- `Content-Type` string, required

## Request body

- object
  - `country_id` string — An ISO country code used for region-specific datacenter or ISP products.

  - `cycle_interval_count` integer — The number of intervals for a recurring cycle (e.g. 1 month, 2 months, etc.).
  - `product_code` string — A direct product code (e.g. "datacenter_us"). If this is provided, you do not need `product_type`, `country_id`, or `product_protocol`.
  - `product_protocol` 'ipv4' | 'ipv6' | 'dual' — The protocol of the product.
  - `product_type` 'datacenter' | 'isp' | 'residential' | 'mobile' — The type of product to purchase (if `product_code` is not used).

  - `quantity` integer, required — The quantity of the product to purchase.
  - `service_fulfillment_filter` object — An optional filter object for advanced product/service configurations.
