i-payout offers a robust dual-environment feature: the Sandbox Environment and Production Environment . The sandbox environment, designed for testing and experimentation, mirrors the functionality of the production environment, where your applications interact with real users and data.

This guide will walk you through the process of transitioning from the Sandbox to the Production environment, ensuring a seamless and secure experience for your business and customers.

Sandbox vs Production Environment

Sandbox Environment

Upon registration, your organization is assigned access to the Sandbox Environment. This environment enables you to explore the API's features, learn about its functionalities, and experiment without affecting your live operations.

The base URL for the Sandbox environment is:

https://merchantapi.testewallet.com

Production Environment

The Production Environment is where real customer interactions occur. To access the Production Environment, you need to request the activation. This environment ensures the highest security and performance for your operations.

The base URL for the Production environment is:

https://merchantapi.i-payout.net/

Transitioning to the Production Environment

Test your Integrations

Test your integrations by simulating your company's workload to ensure they are working as expected. We recommend that you test at least Create Beneficiary and Create Payout when using the Hosted solution or the Create Transfer when using the Full API integration solution.

After testing your integrations, you can contact our team to go live with your integrations. Send an email to our Operations Team and Tech support team. They will run some tests and prepare your live account.
