More examples: Node.js, Ruby on Rails

$orderId = 12345;
$apiSecret = 'YOURSECRET'; //your api key
$callbackUrl = 'http://CHANGEME.com/callback.php?id='.$orderId;
$lockAddressTimeout = 3600;

$url = sprintf('https://api.paybear.io/v3/eth/payment/%s?token=%s&lock_address_timeout=%s', urlencode($callbackUrl), $apiSecret, $lockAddressTimeout);
if ($response = file_get_contents($url)) {
    $response = json_decode($response);
    if (isset($response->data->address)) {
        echo $response->data->address;
