Sandbox

summary

After reading this, you can set up and use the Sandbox for testing and demos.

Introduction​

The Sandbox is fiskaltrust's "playground": a full copy of the live system where you can explore the Middleware, the Portal, and all associated systems freely and at no cost. Use it to test integrations, build proof-of-concept setups, and run demos before going live.

Compared to the live system, the Sandbox has a few key differences:

  • No credit limits — nothing needs to be set up by the sales team.
  • No payment is required to activate paid features.
  • Signatures are for testing only and are not fiscally compliant.
  • No SLA applies.

The Sandbox is entirely separate from the live system, and no data is transferred between the two. As a result, you need separate accounts for each, and a CashBox created in the Sandbox cannot be used in production — or the other way around.

caution

Never deploy a Sandbox CashBox on a production system. Its signatures are not fiscally compliant and will not pass an audit.

Receipts signed in the Sandbox must print the Sandbox signature.

How to reach the Sandbox​

All Sandbox systems follow the same naming as their live counterparts, with a -sandbox suffix added (for example, portal → portal-sandbox). The exact URL depends on your market — select your country below.

You can find the Sandbox instance of the Austrian portal at https://portal-sandbox.fiskaltrust.at.

accounts

Please note that your live system login credentials will not work for the Sandbox, and you will need to register a new account at https://portal-sandbox.fiskaltrust.at/#/Register.
