Sandbox Environment
Effective Date: 01 July 2025

The Sandbox Environment is a secure, simulated space designed for developers and clients to test payment APIs before going live. It replicates real-world scenarios and transaction workflows without initiating actual fund transfers, helping businesses ensure a smooth integration and robust implementation.

Purpose of the Sandbox

The Sandbox is intended to give developers a safe environment to:

  • Explore API functionality

  • Simulate payment flows for both pay-in and payout services

  • Test system compatibility, response handling, and error codes

  • Validate logic, security configurations, and business rules

Key Features

  • Real-Time API Simulation
    Emulates the behavior of production APIs, including authentication, transaction initiation, status checks, and failure handling.

  • No Financial Risk
    All transactions within the Sandbox are virtual, ensuring zero financial impact while you experiment and refine your integration.

  • Comprehensive Coverage
    Test various services including vendor payouts, salary disbursements, rewards and redemptions, and more.

  • Easy Access and Onboarding
    Access is granted immediately upon registration, along with sandbox-specific API keys and developer documentation.

  • Logging and Monitoring
    Every request and response in the Sandbox is logged for your review, allowing you to debug and fine-tune your implementation with ease.

Use Cases

  • Test payment status workflows without initiating live payouts

  • Validate data structure and formatting across different transaction types

  • Verify webhook integrations and response handling

  • Conduct team training sessions using simulated data

Best Practices for Using the Sandbox

  • Use realistic but non-sensitive test data for payloads

  • Thoroughly validate all edge cases, such as failed transactions or invalid parameters

  • Review response codes to prepare your application for all production scenarios

  • Coordinate with your team to align business rules with API behavior

Transitioning to Live Environment

Once testing in the Sandbox is successful:

  • Submit a request for production access

  • Integration will be reviewed for compliance, stability, and security

  • Upon approval, production API credentials and go-live support will be provided

Support and Assistance

Technical support is available to assist with sandbox testing, issue resolution, and integration feedback. Detailed integration guides, sample requests, and FAQs are provided to accelerate development.
