Test the integration

Before going into production, it is very important to test the payments flow, checking whether the configurations you made at the preference level are effectively reflected in the checkout.

You should check if:

• The information about the product or service to be paid is correct.
• If you recognize the customer’s account to send the email.
• It offers the payment methods you wish.
• The payment experience is adequate and the payment result is reported.

To test the integration, follow the steps below:

1. Configure the sandbox public keyin your application.
2. Create the preference on your server with the access token.
3. Complete the form, entering the digits of a test card. On the expiration date you must enter any date after the current date and a 3-or 4-digit security code, depending on the card.
4. In the cardholder field you must enter the prefix corresponding to what you want to test:

• APRO: Payment approved.
• CONT: Pending payment.
• CALL: Payment declined, call to authorize.
• FUND: Payment declined due to insufficient funds.
• SECU: Payment declined by security code.
• EXPI: Payment declined by expiration date.
• FORM: Payment declined due to error in form.
• OTHE: General decline.

Use these test cards to test the different payment results.

You can also use test credit cards from local payment methods in each country.
