Testing split payouts

Testing split payouts involves testing multiple steps:

  • Seller Creation
  • Payment Session Creation
  • Payout and Settlement

Seller Creation

To create sellers in Sandbox, go to SettingsSellers, select Test and click Add Seller.

  • In the Organization number field, put the organization number of the seller you want to test.
  • In the Seller ID field, put any value that would represent the seller in your system. It can be anything, but it needs to be unique.

For automatic approval, check Fast-track seller status and select Automatic approval from the dropdown.

After clicking continue, you will reach this screen:

The seller will then be approved automatically within a few minutes.

Testing with the API

It's of course possible to test sellers with the API as well. Follow this guide, and make sure to use the account id with a T-prefix.

For testing purposes it is possible to auto-approve or decline a new seller by adding one of the following values to payout_destination_description:

  • "AUTO_APPROVE": Approves the case automatically, the case status will be set to ACTIVE
  • "AUTO_DECLINE": Declines the case automatically, the case status will be set to DECLINED
  • "AUTO_WAITING_FOR_SIGNATURE": Leaves the signature check for the case, the case status will be set to WAITING_FOR_SIGNATURE

Payment Session Creation

Sessions can be created with the T-prefixed account as shown in Creating Split Sessions.

You can put a payout_destination_id created above in the split items, but any other value is also valid here.

Payout and Settlement

These are not available in the sandbox environment, as it is a complicated process involving payment providers and banks.

As long as the seller exists and the session is created correctly, payouts and settlements are tested to work.
