Environments

We have three environments available for our partners.

  • Beta - This is environment you're going to use during integration with our services.
  • Production - This is live environment.

Our APIs are secured with Mutual TLS Authentication. You will need certificate signed by us in order to connect. To get a certificate please send us an Certificate Signing Request (CSR). We will sign it and return a valid certificate in a response.

You will need separate certificates for Beta and Production environments, however they can be generated in exactly the same way.
