Flywire API Sandbox

Flywire offers a sandbox environment where you can test the Flywire API. The Flywire API Sandbox allows you to trigger scenarios with magic values.

Base URL

The base URL for the Flywire API Sandbox is

https://api-platform-sandbox.flywire.com/payments/v1/

What's the difference between the sandbox and the production environment?

The sandbox and production environments behave almost identically, but you must take into account that:

  • In the sandbox, payments are not processed by Flywire’s network or partner providers.

  • Some payment methods that are available in production will not be available in the sandbox.

Registering for the Flywire API Sandbox

You need to register an application to be able to use the Flywire API Sandbox.

At the moment the process to register an application inside the sandbox environment is a manual process. You have to contact the Solutions team to get the credentials for your application.
