The short answer

A successful connection test does not prove the public checkout works. Complete a test booking and verify it in both systems.

Availability: Available to accounts with access to Booking System or Document Editor. Providers and advanced controls depend on account configuration.

Step-by-step

  1. Connect test credentials

    Use Stripe test keys or a PayPal sandbox application. Do not mix sandbox and live credentials.

  2. Create a test service

    Use an obvious test name, small test amount and intended currency and payment behavior.

  3. Complete public checkout

    Open the service link privately and use the provider’s documented test payment method.

  4. Verify both records

    Confirm the booking payment status and match it to the provider sandbox transaction.

  5. Switch deliberately to live

    Replace every test credential with its live equivalent, retest the connection and run one controlled live transaction.
