Testing

A merchant (usually a website) has two processing modes:

• Test
• Live

By default, a Merchant is in test mode

Before using payments via ICEPAY Platform in a live environment, we recommend testing.
This prevents potential issues.
In test mode, all payment methods are available.

Checkout flow

When a Merchant is in test processing mode, the payer will be directed to the ICEPAY Payment Page (or first to the ICEPAY Checkout Page if no Payment Method is provided) where a Checkout Status can be selected for the test payment.

Test Payments in the ICEPAY Portal

1. Login on the ICEPAY Portal
2. Go to Checkouts. You can reconize test payments by the Environment label.

In the menu Payments you find only the payments that are processed in live modus.

Going live

Once testing is completed, you have 2 options:

1. Switch merchant mode to Live
2. Create a new merchant, switch the new merchant to live and replace your API key in your integration.

Are you a developer, integrator or webmaster that is creating a connection for a client?

Send us an email at info@icepay.com for an ICEPAY Account so you can test.

With our customer's permission, we can also create an ICEPAY User account and grant access to the customer's ICEPAY Account.
