You can run unlimited transactions with test cards against our test gateway on your free trial. But, if you want to work end-to-end with a live gateway and start collecting your customers' payment information with Spreedly, you will need to activate your Spreedly account by purchasing a subscription that fits your usage.
To do this, log into your Spreedly account and navigate to the Billing tab:
Once you click "Pick a plan for your organization", you will be directed to a pricing page, where you can choose a plan that fits your needs. Once you've picked your plan, you'll be prompted to enter your credit card information. If there are no problems with the transaction, you will have successfully activated your Spreedly account.
Required Reading
- Be sure the email you use to sign-up for Spreedly is active and monitored, as it is crucial for keeping your account active and in production. All billing and account-related emails, including invoices, will go to this address.
- If you have not completed testing, be aware that if you start a Spreedly subscription, you will accrue fees even if using the Spreedly Test gateway.
- Any threshold monitoring and alerts will need to be done programmatically by the customer. Customers are responsible for any fees accrued on their subscriptions. Contact Customer Success if you need to get back in Trial mode to complete your testing prior to subscribing. An alternative would be to maintain two separate Spreedly accounts: one trial account for all testing, and one subscription account for your production transactions.
