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.
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
Get Payment Status
Cancel Paymets
Tokens
Gateway Hosted Checkout Page (Demo Mode)
You can simulate purchases using a secure, hosted checkout page, with limited payment methods:
Card Payments
Mastercard (dummy only)
Mastercard Click-to-Pay (demo mode)
Bank Account
Limited to a single demo bank, for Account-to-Account payments
Demo Store
Includes a simple, pre-integrated Demo Shop where you can walk through the end-to-end purchasing flow—from product selection to simulated payment confirmation.
