| Description | This is the live / productive operation where all payments are forwarded live to the connected service provider (e.g. acquirer, bank, scheme, downstream service provider). These payment transactions are carried out in real life. | In this mode, payment transactions are forwarded to a downstream test system. This is not available for all payment methods and is noted in the corresponding payment method documentation. | In this mode all payment processes within
This mode is available for all payment types.

| Data to use | Only valid productive data | Dedicated test data - see test data overview below | Any "valid" test data (i.e.: Credit card numbers must pass LUHN-check, IBANs must pass IBAN-check, email-address must be syntactically correct) | ||||||||
| Reaction / Response | The behavior and responses of the API correspond to live operation. | The behavior and responses of the API depend on specific test data which are documented for the specific payment method. | The behavior and responses of the API depend on the "OrderDesc" parameter, where you specify the desired response code yourself (e.g. "Test: 0000" or "Test: 0305") | ||||||||

This mode is always available - even if the payment method has been activated for "live". You can also force a simulation in live operation at any time by assigning the "OrderDesc" parameter with a value such as "Test: <nnnn>".Overview of test pages
