  note: >-
    Sandbox and Live are fully separate environments with separate tokens, data, and
    rate-limit counters. Tokens minted in one environment do not work in the other.

notes:
  - No published static test card numbers; sandbox behavior is driven via the simulation endpoints and Dashboard.
  - Idempotency keys and all conventions behave identically in sandbox and live.
