Testing Guide

Before launching, merchants must integrate and thoroughly test their systems within the EdfaPay Sandbox Environment. This environment allows you to validate your integration, test payment flows, and handle callbacks without affecting real transactions.

Sandbox Base URL

https://apidev.edfapay.com

All test requests should be directed to this endpoint. When transitioning to a live environment, simply update the base URL to:

https://api.edfapay.com

Sandbox Credentials

Upon registration, you will receive a unique Sandbox Merchant Key and Merchant Password for authentication. These credentials are distinct from your Production credentials. If you have not yet received your sandbox details, please contact EdfaPay Support.

Test Cards

To simulate various payment scenarios, we provide a comprehensive set of dummy Card Numbers.

⚠️
Note: Apple Pay cannot be tested in the sandbox environment. A production environment with a valid Apple Merchant ID is required for Apple Pay testing.

Importing Postman Collection

To streamline your testing process:

Download: Obtain the EdfaPay Postman Collection, which will be provided by our team.
Import: Open Postman, navigate to "Import," and upload the downloaded collection JSON file.
Configure: Update the Environment Variables within Postman with your sandbox merchant credentials.
Switch Environments: Easily toggle between Sandbox and Production environments by simply updating the base URL.

What to Test

We recommend testing the following key functionalities:

Sale (S2S) payments
Refunds
Webhook callbacks
Invoice creation and payment
Error handling (e.g., decline codes)

Go Live Checklist

To ensure a smooth transition to the production environment, complete the following steps:

Update Base URL: Switch from the Sandbox base URL to the Production base URL.
Replace Credentials: Update your system with production credentials, replacing the sandbox ones.
Verify Callbacks & Redirections: Confirm that all callback URLs and success/failure redirection pages are functioning correctly.
Live Transaction: Perform a small live transaction with a real card to ensure final confirmation of your integration.
