## How it works

Start with a shop and one healthy connector. A payment link lets you check the entire integration before writing application code.

## Implementation

Open Transactions → Create payment, choose your shop, amount and currency, and select Test under Environment. Open the generated checkout and use the processor's published test card. Return to Transactions and inspect the Test badge, connector and status timeline. Refund the test payment and check both event deliveries. Confirm sandbox credentials first: a Test badge alone does not prove that no real money moved.
