| Environment | Base URL | Usage |
|---|---|---|
| Sandbox | https://sandbox.api.ddpay.tech/api/v1 | Development and testing with simulated cards |
| Production | https://api.ddpay.tech/api/v1 | Real transactions |
Credentials
- client_id and client_secret uniquely identify your application in each environment.
- Sandbox and production credentials are independent.
- You manage and rotate credentials from the merchant portal.
