How does a test administration work?
A test administration is an additional administration within your existing Payt organisation. It works exactly the same as a regular administration: there is no separate test label or separate environment. All features and integrations work identically.
Common use cases for a test administration include testing a new accounting integration during a migration or API calls.
A test administration is a completely unique Payt administration. This means that data such as API keys are unique and cannot be copied from a live administration when testing.
How do I set up a test administration?
Add a new administration within your Payt organisation.
Give the internal administration name a clear indication, for example by adding the word 'TEST' to the name, so it remains easy to distinguish. Example:
Administration name:
Company LtdInternal administration name:
TEST Company Ltd
Set up the desired integrations or features and test them as needed.

What are the costs for a test administration?
A test administration is free of charge, provided it does not go live. To ensure this, two things are important:
Do not fully complete the implementation by not setting the administration live.
Inform the Payt service desk of the existence of the test administration, so this can be taken into account in billing.
Because the test administration never goes live, communications (e.g. emails and letters) are not actually sent to your customers.
How do I delete a test administration?
You cannot delete a test administration yourself. If you have a test administration that is no longer needed, please contact the service desk.
