Testing & Sandbox Mode
Every StarPay SGH account is currently sandbox-only — a safe environment to build and test your integration with no real money involved.
Simulating payments
When your customer reaches the checkout page, they'll see Simulate Successful Payment and Simulate Failed Payment buttons instead of a real payment form. Use these to test both outcomes in your integration.
Test Ghana Card numbers
During registration, any number matching this format will verify successfully with realistic-looking mock data:
GHA-123456789-0
SMS and push notifications
SMS and push notifications aren't connected to a live provider yet — they're logged on the server instead of actually delivered. Email notifications, in-app notifications, and webhooks are fully functional.
Going live
Live payment processing isn't available yet. This documentation will be updated once a live payment provider is connected.
