  publicKey:
    "sendchamp_test_$2y$10$U2SHG5T2F/cr0jfzNCKgguHv.23plvJP/75EzZjF5MtLXz65SDrQi",
});

// Initialize a service
const sms = sendchamp.SMS;

// Use the service
const options = {
  to: ["234812345678"],
  message: "Hello from postman",
  sender_name: "sendchamp",
  // optional option to set route
  route: "international", // can be set to non_dnd, dnd or international, default it non_dnd
};

sms
  .send(options)
  .then((response) => {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.log(error);
  });
