# Environments

In addition to the Production environment, Cryptopay also provides developers with a test environment - Sandbox, which mirrors the production environment and works with test networks (testnets) of all the cryptocurrencies that Cryptopay supports. Thus, developers can use the Sandbox environment to develop and test integration via [Cryptopay API.](https://reference.cryptopay.me/)

| Environment | Base URL                                                                   |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Sandbox     | <https://business-sandbox.cryptopay.me>                                    |
| Production  | [https://business.cryptopay.me](<&#xA;https://business.cryptopay.me&#xA;>) |

The Sandbox environment and the Production environment are independent and not connected to each other in any way.&#x20;

Here are the other base URLs utilized by Cryptopay, depending on the environment:
