Because Lorum clears real payment schemes, the sandbox exposes "simulate scheme action" endpoints that stand in for the payment scheme in production - letting an integrator drive inbound settlement, outbound execution, failure, and return end-to-end without waiting for real scheme processing. There are no test card numbers (this is a clearing / account-to-account API, not card acquiring); the test surface is the simulation endpoints plus sandbox-only credentials. environments: sandbox: api: https://api-sandbox.fuse.me auth: https://auth-sandbox.fuse.me/oauth/token portal: https://sandbox.lorum.com production: api: https://api.fuse.me auth: https://auth.fuse.me/oauth/token portal: https://app.lorum.com credentials: model: separate client_id / client_secret issued per environment in the portal location: Portal > Settings > Client Credentials simulation_endpoints: - name: Simulate inbound payment operation: simulate_inbound_payment description: Simulate a payment settling into an account - name: Simulate execute outbound payment operation: simulate_execute_payment description: Simulate a submitted outbound payment being executed by the scheme - name: Simulate fail outbound payment operation: simulate_fail_payment description: Simulate a submitted outbound payment failing - name: Simulate return payment operation: simulate_return_payment description: Simulate an executed outbound payment being returned by the beneficiary's bank availability: simulate functions are sandbox-only docs: - https://docs.lorum.com/docs/simulating-scheme-actions-on-sandbox - https://docs.lorum.com/docs/simulating-scheme-actions-via-api - https://docs.lorum.com/docs/simulating-scheme-actions-on-the-portal - https://docs.lorum.com/docs/integration-checklist
