Testing Stripe Issuing Invite Only

Test your integration before going live by issuing cards and simulating purchases in test mode.

You can issue cards and simulate purchases using your own Stripe integration in test mode. This allows you to test your integration before you go live and issue cards that can be used to make real purchases.

No account balance is needed when issuing cards in test mode, and these cards can only be used for testing within your Stripe account.

Simulating purchases

You can simulate a card purchase using your test API keys with the following process:

Create a cardholder
Create a card
Retrieve the new card’s details
Create a Source object using the card
Create an uncaptured charge using the source

Step 1: Create a cardholder

First, create a cardholder with a name, billing address, and entity type. You can also provide additional information, if necessary.

};

var service = new CardholderService();
Cardholder card = service.Create(options);

Step 2: Create a card

After creating a cardholder, you can create a card for them. Provide the id of the Cardholder object and currency. For immediate testing, create a virtual card and set its status to active.

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/issuing/cards \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc: \
  -d cardholder=ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP \
  -d type=virtual \
  -d currency=usd \
  -d status=active

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.api_key = 'sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc'

card = Stripe::Issuing::Card.create({
    cardholder: 'ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP',
    type: 'virtual',
    currency: 'usd',
    status: 'active',
})

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.api_key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

card = stripe.issuing.Card.create(
  cardholder='ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP',
  type='virtual',
  currency='usd',
  status='active'
)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

$card = \Stripe\Issuing\Card::create([
    'cardholder' => 'ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP',
    'type' => 'virtual',
    'currency' => 'usd',
    'status' => 'active',
]);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.apiKey = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc";

Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("cardholder", "ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP");
params.put("type", "virtual");
params.put("currency", "usd");
params.put("status", "active");
Card card = Card.create(params);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
var stripe = require("stripe")("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

const card = stripe.issuing.cards.create({

  currency: 'usd',
  status: 'active',
});

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.Key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

card, err := New(&stripe.IssuingCardParams{
  Cardholder: stripe.String("ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP"),
  Currency: stripe.String(string(stripe.CurrencyUSD)),
  Type: stripe.String(string(stripe.IssuingCardTypeVirtual)),
  Status: stripe.String(string(stripe.IssuingCardStatusInactive)),
})

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production

var options = new CardCreateOptions {
    Cardholder = "ich_1Cm3pZIyNTgGDVfzI83rasFP",
    Type = "virtual",
    Currency = "usd",
    Status = "active",
};

var service = new CardService();
Card card = service.Create(options);

Step 3: Retrieve sensitive card details

For security reasons, API responses returning a card object will not include sensitive details like the full card number, expiry date, or CVC code by default. For virtual cards, you can retrieve these details when required.

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/issuing/cards/ic_1Cm3paIyNTgGDVfzBqq1uqxR/details \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc:

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.api_key = 'sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc'

card = Stripe::Issuing::Card.retrieve("ic_1Cm3paIyNTgGDVfzBqq1uqxR")
card_details = card.details

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.api_key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

card = stripe.issuing.Card.retrieve('ic_1Cm3paIyNTgGDVfzBqq1uqxR')
card_details = (card.details)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

$card = \Stripe\Issuing\Card::retrieve('ic_1Cm3paIyNTgGDVfzBqq1uqxR');
$details = $card->details();

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.apiKey = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc";

Card card = Card.retrieve("ic_1Cm3paIyNTgGDVfzBqq1uqxR");

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
var stripe = require("stripe")("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

stripe.issuing.cards.retrieveDetails(
  'ic_1CoYuRKEl2ztzE5GIEDjQiUI',
  function (err, details) {
    // asynchronously called
  }
);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.Key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

details, err := Get("ic_1CoYuRKEl2ztzE5GIEDjQiUI", nil)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
StripeConfiguration.SetApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

var service = new CardService();
CardDetails details = service.Details("ic_1CoYuRKEl2ztzE5GIEDjQiUI")

Step 4: Create a source

Using the newly issued card’s details, create a source. A source will allow you to create a test charge as it simulates the swipe or entry of an issue card at the time of purchase. If you provide address details or a CVC, these will be compared to the values that you define when creating the card, and the results of this comparison will be provided

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/sources \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc: \
  -d type=card \
  -d card[number]=4000009990000006 \
  -d card[exp_month]=8 \
  -d card[exp_year]=2019

stripe.api_key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

source = stripe.Source.create(

  card={
    'number': '4000009990000006',
    'exp_month': 8,
    'exp_year': 2019
  }
)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

$source = \Stripe\Source::create([
    'type' => 'card',
    'card' => [
        'number' => '4000009990000006',

Stripe.apiKey = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc";

Map<String, Object> cardParams = new HashMap<String, Object>();
cardParams.put("number", "4000009990000006");

cardParams.put("exp_year", 2019)

Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("type", "card");
params.put("card", sourceParams);

Source source = Source.create(params);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production

      Number = "4000009990000006",
      ExpMonth = 8,
      ExpYear = 2019
    }
};

var sourceService = new SourceService();
Source source = sourceService.Create(sourceOptions);

Step 5: Create an uncaptured charge

Using auth and capture, create a charge that is not immediately captured.

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc: \
  -d source=src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld \

  -d capture=false

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.api_key = 'sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc'

charge = Stripe::Charge.create({
    source: 'src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld',
    amount: 2000,
    currency: 'usd',
    capture: false,
})

# Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
# See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.api_key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

charge = stripe.Charge.create(
  source='src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld',
  amount=2000,
  currency='usd',
  capture=False
)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
\Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

$charge = \Stripe\Charge::create([
    'source' => 'src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld',
    'amount' => 2000,
    'currency' => 'usd',
    'capture' => false,
]);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
Stripe.apiKey = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc";

Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("source", "src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld");
params.put("amount", 2000);
params.put("currency", "usd");
params.put("capture", false);
Charge charge = Charge.create(params);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
var stripe = require("stripe")("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

const charge = stripe.charges.create({
  source: 'src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld',
  amount: 2000,
  currency: 'usd',
  capture: false,
);

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
stripe.Key = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc"

params := &stripe.ChargeParams{
  Amount: 2000,
  Currency: "usd",
  Capture: false,
}
params.SetSource("src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld")ch, _ := charge.New(params)

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/apikeys
StripeConfiguration.SetApiKey("sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc");

var options = new ChargeCreateOptions {
    SourceId = "src_1Cn6EvIyNTgGDVfzosvqD8ld",
    Amount = 2000,
    Currency = "usd",
    Capture = false,
};
var service = new ChargeService();
Charge charge = service.Create(options);

This step results in an authorization request. If there are authorization controls on the card, they are applied. If your integration is configured to receive and handle authorization requests, Stripe also sends the issuing_authorization.request event to your test authorization endpoint.

You can test international purchases by creating a charge in a currency that’s different to the card’s own currency (e.g., create a gbp charge for a usd card).

Handling authorizations

You can test how your integration handles changes to authorizations by replicating the possible actions that can occur.

Capturing an authorization (uncaptured charge)

To settle an uncaptured charge, which results in the creation of a Transaction object, capture the charge.

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges/ch_1CmMk3IyNTgGDVfzqgWGCQr5/capture \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc:

Partial capture

An authorization can be captured for any amount below what has been authorized. You can partially capture a test charge by providing a value for amount when capturing a charge.

Partially capturing a charge creates a Transaction object for the amount captured, and a reversal of the remaining amount. This reversal is represented as an update to the Authorization object.

Reversing an authorization

You can reverse (void) an authorization that has not been captured by creating a refund for the uncaptured charge.

Refunding a captured charge

Refunding a captured charge uses the same method as refunding an uncaptured one. A Transaction object of type refund is created that references the original authorization.

Testing verification outcomes

Issued cards support AVS and CVC checks. You can simulate authorizations that either provide the wrong information so these checks fail, or no information so the checks cannot be run. The results of these checks are represented on Authorization objects as values for verification_data.

AVS and CVC check

When creating a Source object for an issued card, providing address and CVC information is optional. If they are not provided, the resulting ZIP code, street address, and CVC checks return not_provided. To test AVS and CVC checks, provide an address, a CVC, or both during source creation.

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/sources \
  -u sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc: \
  -d type=card \
  -d card[number]=4000009990000006 \
  -d card[exp_month]=8 \

Providing the same address as the billing address on the card results in a successful AVS check (the respective verification_data fields return match), as well as providing the correct CVC (the value returned in the card details) for the CVC check.

To test for a failed check, create a source that has a different ZIP code, street address, and CVC—this results in verification_data returning mismatch.
