Country coverage, base URLs, and sandbox versus live behavior across Payments API and WAPIs

Both WiPay API products use the same country-based live and sandbox host pattern. The product difference is the path you append to the selected base URL.

Base URLs

Select the live or sandbox base URL for the country and environment you are targeting.

WAPIs/wapi/{resource-path}https://ttsb.wipayfinancial.com/wapi/auth/tokens

Payments API Routing

  • Full endpoint pattern: {base_url}/plugins/payments/request
  • Example live TT endpoint: https://tt.wipayfinancial.com/plugins/payments/request
  • Example sandbox TT endpoint: https://ttsb.wipayfinancial.com/plugins/payments/request
  • The Payments API still uses the environment request parameter as part of the request payload.

WAPI Routing

  • Full endpoint pattern: {base_url}/wapi/{resource-path}
  • Example live TT base path: https://tt.wipayfinancial.com/wapi
  • Example sandbox TT base path: https://ttsb.wipayfinancial.com/wapi

Sandbox Credentials and Behavior

Payments API

  • Use environment=sandbox for test transactions.
  • Use the sandbox account_number 1234567890.
  • Use the sandbox API Key 123 only for server-side hash verification.
  • Sandbox reporting, automated emails, and transaction history are disabled.

WAPIs

  • Use the sandbox base URL for the target country.
  • Authenticate with real WiPay credentials unless WiPay has provisioned alternative test credentials for your account.
  • WAPI Keys use the wapi_live_... prefix for live and the wapi_test_... prefix for sandbox.
  • Some endpoints, especially account-management flows, may depend on a provisioned WAPI Configuration.
