The Monirates sandbox environment lets you integrate and test the API safely. All transactions in sandbox are simulated and carry no real-world value — no actual money moves.
Getting a Sandbox API Key
- Visit the sandbox portal at dev.business.monirates.com.
- Sign up or log in to your account.
- Navigate to the Settings section of your dashboard.
- Create or copy your sandbox API key.
Keep your sandbox API key secure. Never commit it to version control — use environment variables instead.
Sandbox Base URL
All sandbox requests go to:
Pass your sandbox API key in the x-api-key header, same as production.
Example Request
Sandbox vs. Production
Transitioning to Production
When you’re ready to go live:
- Log in to the production portal at business.monirates.com.
- Generate your production API key from the Settings section.
- Update your environment variables to use the production key.
- Switch your base URL to
https://interface.monirates.com.
- Start with small live transactions to verify everything works before scaling volume.
Never use your sandbox API key in production or your production key for sandbox testing. Keys are environment-specific and are not interchangeable.
