Run test payments

The Mollie module enables you to purchase items from your shop in test mode. This means you can check whether your payment methods work properly for every possible payment status.

Apple Pay Direct and Bancontact only work in live mode. This means you must test them using a real transaction. See Test Apple Pay Direct and Test the Bancontact QR code.

2. Select Test in the Environment dropdown and click Save at the bottom of the page.

3. Click View my shop in the top navigation bar.

4. Select an item from your shop to run a test payment and click Add to cart > Proceed to checkout.

8. Select the payment status that you want to test and click Continue. This takes you to a page that provides information about the payment's status. For example, if you selected Paid, the page confirms a successful payment.
