    Adyen for Platformspartialclaimed5/10

    Adyen for Platforms is API-first and offers a full REST API for onboarding, legal entity management, balance accounts, and split payments, plus webhooks for async status checks instead of polling — these are usable headlessly/in CI. However, there is no explicit CI/CD example, no CLI tool, and part of the onboarding flow relies on Adyen-hosted UI pages rather than pure headless flow. missing for 10: explicit CI/automation pipeline examples, a CLI or SDK automation guide, confirmation that all onboarding steps (not just hosted-page flow) can run fully headless without human/UI interaction.
