The Auto-Debit System® can be placed in TEST mode or LIVE mode. Test Mode allows you to run transactions and schedule auto-debits that are not real.  This allows you to practice using the system.

Use the test account numbers below when testing. At any time you need to practice using the system, you can switch the system to test mode. Please note that once you schedule real auto-debits, be sure you return the system to live mode or they will not run.

  • You may use any expiration date (as long as it has not already passed) & make up any CVD code.
