What do you mean by 'set up in either live mode or test mode'?

#

That toggle is purely for Dashboard data purposes, it doesn't impact your API integrations at all

The problem one account should be in live mode and another should be in test mode. But when i select test mode for one account then another account changes to test mode from live mode

Yeah I guess that's just the way it works. But as I said, that toggle doesn't really operate that way

#

It doesn't mean your account is in live/test mode. It just determines what data you're viewing on the Dashboard

#

Ultimately whether your in test/live is determined by the API keys you're using in your integration

We have two websites, game website and SaaS website. In stripe we have created two accounts based on this websites. Now in game website account it is in LIVE mode where users are registering and doing payments. And SaaS website it is in TEST mode because the website is still being developed. So the problem is as Game website account is in LIVE mode so the SaaS website is also in LIVE mode by default. But in SaaS website when I toggle to TEST mode the Game website also changes to TEST mode. Which is not right technically as we need one website in TEST mode and one website in LIVE mode

Yep, makes sense. However that Dashboard toggle is completely irrelevant here. It doesn't toggle whether your integration is in live mode, or whether your API requests are made in live mode. It's simply a toggle to switch between viewing your test and live data in the Dashboard

#

You can test completely independent of that toggle using your test mode API keys from the Dashboard

#

As long as you're using pk_test_xxx and sk_test_xxx keys than that toggle has no bearing on your integration

#

I guess the Dashboard toggle state persists when switch between accounts, which I guess is a minor annoyance. But it shouldn't impact either of your 2 integrations where you're still testing 1 and live with the other
