A sandbox environment provides a safe and isolated space for payment acquirers to test their integrations and functionalities before deploying them in the live production environment. It helps identify and resolve any issues or bugs without affecting real customers or financial data.

In the sandbox environment, you can try out the integration of the POS terminal simulator, which emulates the behavior of a real point-of-sale terminal. You can also access the API documentation to understand the available endpoints, parameters, and authentication methods. Additionally, you can explore the dashboard to monitor test transactions, generate reports, and manage test accounts.

To access the sandbox environment, you need to sign up or obtain credentials from the payment acquirer's developer portal. The portal will provide you with the necessary API keys or access tokens to authenticate your requests. Once you have the credentials, you can log in to the sandbox environment using the provided URL or API endpoints.

No, it is important to note that the sandbox environment is designed for testing purposes only. It does not process real financial transactions, and using actual payment information is strictly prohibited. Instead, the sandbox environment uses simulated data to mimic transaction flows and responses.

Yes, most sandbox environments offer a feature to reset or clear the data. This allows you to start fresh and perform tests from the beginning. Resetting the sandbox environment will typically remove all test transactions, accounts, and other simulated data, returning it to its initial state.

Yes, payment acquirers typically offer support or developer resources to assist users in the sandbox environment. You can reach out to their support team or refer to their documentation, knowledge base, or community forums for guidance on integration, troubleshooting, or any other questions you may have.

While the sandbox environment aims to replicate the behavior of the live production environment, there may be some differences. These differences can include simulated response times, limitations on transaction volumes or values, or specific test scenarios. It is recommended to thoroughly test and validate your integration in the sandbox environment before deploying it to the live production environment.
