Test Credit Card Numbers
Test Credit Card Numbers are used to test or register an e-commerce account instead of using a real credit card. They are dummy credit card numbers that work just like live credit card accounts, except that none of the transactions are actually settled so there will be no funds or fees moving from a customers account into your merchant account and bank account. Valid data must be used or errors will occur for things like card numbers, checking information, check writer ID info, etc. DO NOT use a real credit card with test accounts unless you run a $1.00 transaction! If you do more, your accounts funds will be held by each authorization until the credit card expires. The test credit card will always give a result, the address verification and security code will match regardless of the input values. It will also authorize with no expiration date. If you need to see different address verification and security code results, you must use a live credit card. In such a case, use low dollar amounts like $1.00 to avoid costly testing procedures.
