Setting up Test Mode in Shopify Payment Provider 💳
When starting with a new Shopify store, the first step is to ensure access to the Shopify EV T tool. We have provided a link below the description to help you get started for free. Once inside your Shopify dashboard, navigate to the ‘Payments’ section in the ‘Settings’ and make sure to create a product before adding your payment provider. This is where you can enable the test mode for simulated transactions, allowing you to make test orders without processing payments.
Creating an Actual Test Product 📦
In order to make a test transaction, you need to have an active plan in Shopify. Start by creating a test product in your Shopify store, whether it’s a dummy product or a real product with a discounted price for testing purposes. Ensure that the product is set to active and visible to your customers. Once the product is created, you can preview it to see how it will appear in your online store.
Making a Test Order in Your Shopify Store 🛍️
After your store is active, you can proceed to make the actual test order. Add the product to your cart and go through the checkout process, providing test customer information, a test email address, shipping address, and payment details. You can use a test credit card or select a test payment method provided by Shopify to complete the order.
Reviewing the Test Order Process 📋
Once the test order is completed, you can review different scenarios such as using different payment methods or shipping options, checking out the shipping address, and printing the package slips. This is an essential step to ensure that your store is ready to receive real transactions.
