Culqi and Easy Digital Downloads Integration Guide
Production and integration environments
Each account created in Culqi is divided into two environments: one to perform test transactions and another to carry out transactions with real cards. All API requests will be routed to one of the two environments and will depend on the type of key you are using.
The production and testing environments were designed to work exactly the same but only with a few small differences:
In the test environment, transactions are not processed by bank networks and only test cards can be used .
Keys
Each of the environments of your account (production and testing), work only with a set of keys that have been created exclusively for each environment and in this way Culqi realizes with what environment you want to interact. The keys corresponding to your account can be found in the Culqi Panel.
To get Keys APIs of the environment you want to use, you must enter the Environment Panel and go to the Development section – API Keys:
Environment URL
Integration https://integ-panel.culqi.com/#/desarrollo/llaves
Production https://panel.culqi.com/#/desarrollo/llaves
In addition to Keys APIs related to integration and production environments, there are two types of Keys APIs: public and secret.
The public keys are designed only to identify your account with Culqi and they are not a secret. In other words, they can be published securely in your Culqi.JS, JavaScript code or in your Android or iOS application. Public keys only have the power to create tokens .
Instead, private keys should be stored on your servers in a confidential manner. This type of keys can make any request to the Culqi API without any restriction.
If you want to renew both keys immediately you can do it through the Panel and they will be deactivated at the moment. When your set of keys are deactivated, you will not be able to use them again.
Activating your account
Before activating your account , you will only be able to interact with the Culqi testing environment. Do not worry. All the functionalities of the production environment are also available in the test environment, the only difference is that you can not create transactions with real cards until you activate your account.
Take the credentials you just obtained from Culqi and navigate to Trexle dashboard, click Payments Gateways and select Culqi from the drop down menu as shown below.
Fill into your Culqi credential and click Add Gateway. Click the Activate button next to Culqi, and it will give you a success message and the button will turn into green. You should see something like below.
