i assume i need to put stripe into "production" mode, just wondering where?

Hi, that typically happens when you use a a real card number when using yout test api keys. You can use hhttps://docs.stripe.com/testing?testing-method=card-numbers&payment-method=others#cards

You can't test real cards as that is against your Terms of Service

Since you're using your test api key, https://docs.stripe.com/keys you can use the cards shared above

i want to use real cards, real keys etc

pretty sure i am

i specified STRIPE_SECRET_KEY

so i expected it to be in production now

or maybe theres a switch in the stripe backend to flip?

i cant access it because it belongs to my client, but i recall seeing one once

You can't test in live mode

If you're looking to go into production, you can swicth yoiur API key to your live key

@pale lynx did it work?

[pale lynx]

hi sorry i was away

yeh i put the live key in

buti ts the same, i see on the example terminal backend theres this code

Stripe.api_key = ENV['STRIPE_ENV'] == 'production' ? ENV['STRIPE_SECRET_KEY'] : ENV['STRIPE_TEST_SECRET_KEY']

so i guess i just need to set STRIPE_ENV='production in my backend

[inland delta]

you'd use your live key instead of the test key, yes

[pale lynx]

thanks testing now
