Test payment methods

Test your payment methods by simulating various payment statuses.

Note

  • Use Mollie test credentials to test credit/debit cards.
  • Apple Pay Direct works only in a production environment (in either test or live mode), and on Apple devices or Safari.
  • Test Apple Pay Direct and the Bancontact QR code by making actual payments, as they only work in live mode.

In test mode, Mollie simulates payments: no real money transfers occur.

  2. In the left navigation menu, select Mollie > Settings.
  3. Select Test from the Environment drop-down menu.
  4. Save the changes.

Make a test payment

  1. Make a test purchase in your PrestaShop shop.
  2. On the checkout page, select the payment method and submit the order.

    This takes you to a page that provides information about the payment's status. For example, if you selected Paid, the page confirms a successful payment.
