FAQ

Where do I get my API keys?

Create a merchant account on our merchant dashboard
Once you have an account you can find your production API keys under the “Connect” menu option

How can I test payments without actually paying?

You can immediately get setup on production but enable a “test payment provider”. If you’re already close to going live and just want to test the final flows you will be using this. These transactions will go through your production account but won’t actually be paid out. It always you to smoke test your integration with a fake payment provider but using your live credentials. This also means you can see all payments in the dashboard, app etc..

We have a full sandbox which allows you more of a development approach. This allows you to test with multiple payment providers and these transactions won’t show up in your account. You will be given a sandbox API endpoint, client ID and API key from us and you can use these to initiate transactions and integrate in your account.
For sandbox credentials please contact us at [email protected]

What is the payment expiry setting?

You can decide how long you want an initiated payment to be payable by the customer. Once it has expired and has not been completed the order will be automatically cancelled.
If you do not set this value it will take the default configured value from your dashboard settings on Genie Business
