With Niobi’s payment API, you’ll get access to our sandbox environment, where you can safely test your integration with all available MNOs. Use special phone numbers (MSISDNs) to simulate different scenarios without involving real money or mobile wallets.
Only the phone numbers listed below work in sandbox. An arbitrary correctly-formatted number (e.g. a real number in valid international format) will not fall back to a generic success, it fails deterministically: deposits are marked failed, and payouts return "Test phone number was not found." (status_code: "000005"). Always pick a number from the tables below for the country, network, and scenario you want to simulate.
The funds available in the sandbox environment do not represent real money. You can top up your sandbox account in two ways.
Simulate a payin to your account using any of the provided test phone numbers below for the specific currency you would like to top up. (View available methods)
You will then receive funds you can use to test payouts in the sandbox environment.
