Place a test order

Test the complete order flow before going live: product, customer, payment.

Why test before launching

Before sharing your payment link with real customers, verify everything works: the product shows the correct price, the confirmation email is sent, and the invoice is generated.

Create a test order

Two options:

Option 1: via the Getting Started wizard
In the "Getting Started" section, click "Test order". The wizard automatically creates an order with your demo customer.

Option 2: manually
Go to OrdersNew order. Select a customer, a product, and confirm. The payment will be simulated (no real charge until you’re in live mode).

Verify the result

After the test order, verify:

  • The order appears in Orders with the correct status
  • The payment appears in Payments
  • The customer received a confirmation email (check spam)
  • The invoice is generated and accessible from the order

FAQ

Does the test order charge real money?
No. Until you connect Stripe and activate live mode, no real payment is processed.
