Testing

In order to test the NPI Gateway you should replace the merchant ID and signature key with the test credentials that we will give you. For confirmation, Go to the portal -> Merchant Accounts to see if you have the test account created. Once you have setting up your plugin, you need to make a transaction using our test card details. We recommend to create a test product with value of one euro.

However, for quick testing, use the following card information:
