Beta access for sandbox functionality is targeted for October 9, 2026.
What exists
Your sandbox program has core accounts, core balances, and core transactions you can list and retrieve the same way as in production:How balances and transactions behave
Sandbox returns a static response for core balances and core transactions. The figures and entries you read are fixed sample data. New activity in sandbox does not reach the core objects. Simulated ACH, wires, instant payments, and internal transfers do not create core transactions and do not change any core balance. Use the sandbox core endpoints to test how your integration reads these objects, not to reconcile simulated payments.What you can test
- Requesting the
core_account/read,core_balance/read, andcore_transaction/readscopes and calling each endpoint with them. - Parsing every field on the three objects, including
amounts,overdraft, andintereston a balance. - List filters and cursor pagination:
typeon accounts,core_account_idon balances,core_balance_id,type, and thecreated_atwindow on transactions. - Error handling.
What you cannot test
- A balance changing in response to a simulated payment.
- A core transaction appearing for a simulated payment, or joining a payment’s core transaction ID to a core transaction.
- Status changes. Core accounts and balances stay
activein sandbox, and there is no simulate endpoint to deactivate or close one.
