Get Started with Disburse
A step-by-step guide to help you get started with Disburse.
Let's get started by running Disburse in the sandbox environment. To start, you will need to sign up for an account on the Brankas Dashboard and generate an API key. We will be guiding you through in this article from how to get started in the sandbox environment followed by the transition to go live.
Set Up Your Sandbox
There are 2 environments available. In the Sandbox environment, you can transact and call data with dummy banks, amounts, currencies and prototype your integrations. There are no limits in the sandbox environment and when you are ready, transition to the live mode where you will be transacting and calling data from customers.
We will be walking you through how to get started in the sandbox environment in this article.
Brankas provides 2 modes:
