Checklist for promoting your account to production

Are you ready to transition to production mode? Get your credit or debit card ready and follow this checklist to ensure a smooth selling experience:

1. Test Mode Validation: Thoroughly test your integration in the test mode environment. Make sure to handle all failure cases correctly and ensure that all functionalities are working as expected.
2. IP Whitelisting: Set up IP whitelists for your production environment to enhance security. Refer to the security section for instructions on how to set it up.
3. Upgrading to Production: Move the slider from the test mode environment to initiate the upgrade process.
4. User and Business Information: Fill out your user and business information and accept the Terms and Conditions. When doing so, you have three options for handling your production catalog:
   • Option 1: Enable Everything – All products in the catalog will be enabled, and any new products added to zendit will be available for sale by default.
   • Option 2: Decide Later – All products in the catalog will be disabled, allowing you to curate your catalog after transitioning to production. Any new products added to zendit will be disabled by default.
   • Option 3: Keep Your Test Mode Setup – If you have already curated your catalog in the test mode environment, your catalog will remain unchanged during the upgrade process. Any new products added to zendit will be disabled by default.
5. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): All zendit accounts in production mode must use MFA, with SMS as one of the factors. If you have already set up MFA during account registration, review your settings and proceed. If not, you will be required to set up MFA and verify your phone before proceeding.
6. Wallet Funding: It’s time to set up a funding source for your wallet. Have your bank account information ready so you can reach out to our payments team and send a wire transfer when the process is complete.
7. Final Steps: If you have completed all the steps successfully, you now have all the rights and privileges to start selling products with zendit. You will be presented with a screen to add funds to your account, your new production API key, and a reminder about keeping your site secure if you haven’t set up IP whitelists.
8. Configuration Update: Insert your production API key into your configuration and ensure that your application is pointing to the production API server. Deploy your application to the production environment.

One last note: We are constantly improving our products, and soon, we will introduce a toggle in the API settings section. This toggle will allow you to enable or disable new products added to zendit by default. Stay tuned for updates on this feature.

Congratulations on reaching the production mode with Zendit! We wish you success in your selling endeavors.
