Programmatically call function to pay

[SanchezQb]

Is there a way to call a click function on the pay button without actually clicking it?
The reason is that I'm getting the paystack key and email from an API and I want to be able to call a function to pay without clicking a different button. This is what I've tried...

<PaystackButton key="pay" text={this.state.info} ref={(payRef) => this.payRef = payRef} class="payButton" callback={this.callback} close={this.close} embed={false} reference={this.state.ref} email={this.state.email} amount={parseInt(this.state.amount)} paystackkey={this.state.p_key} tag="button" />
Then I'm calling this.payRef.payWithPaystack() but my state values are empty
