  RateHawk / Emerging Travel Group does not publish public per-call API
  pricing. Access to the pAPI v3 is granted under a B2B partner contract:
  partners book at negotiated net (wholesale) rates and ETG earns the margin
  between net and sell price. Commercial terms, deposit / credit limits, and
  any volume incentives are agreed per contract during onboarding. Test
  (sandbox) keys are provided free for integration. Specific monetary rates
  are not reconciled in this artifact because they are contracted and not
  publicly listed.
notes: >-
  Contact RateHawk / ETG partnership team for net-rate terms, credit limits,
  and settlement options. Pricing here is structural, not numeric, and must be
  reconciled against the signed partner agreement.
