Sandbox Guide

What Is the Sandbox?

The Tietoevry E-commerce Payment Gateway (EGW) Sandbox is a secure, isolated test environment that simulates the production behavior of the EGW platform—allowing you to explore and validate its capabilities without processing real transactions.

It is designed for merchants, acquirers, banks, and PSPs to safely evaluate the platform’s functionality and test integrations before going live.

This particular sandbox is intentionally designed to demonstrate our core capabilities and includes a limited set of features. It provides a quick and structured overview for interested parties, helping you gain a first impression and make informed decisions. It also serves as a starting point for deeper discussions with the Tietoevry team about the full platform capabilities described in our official documentation.

What’s Available in the Sandbox?

The sandbox provides a limited but functional set of tools and services, including:

Merchant API (Test Mode)

  • Payment Initiation
