RazorpayX test mode is a replication of RazorpayX in a sandbox environment. It allows you to test all aspects of your integration before you go live.

Actions taken in the test mode have no consequences in your live environment. Test mode has its own dummy balance. No real money is used in the test mode.

Contacts, fund accounts and payouts created in the test mode do not appear in the live environment. You can create contacts and fund accounts using real-world or dummy data.

For example, a contact created in the test mode does not carry over to the live mode and vice versa. Payouts made to a fund account in the test mode uses funds from the test account balance, which is not real money.

Razorpay employs a request rate limiter that limits the number of requests received by the API within a time window. This is to maintain system stability in the event of unintentional high traffic loads.

While integrating with APIs, watch for HTTP status code 429 and build the retry mechanism based on the requirement.

To make the best use of the limits, it is recommended to use an Exponential backoff/stepped backoff strategy to reduce request volume and stay within the limit. It is also recommended to have some randomization within the backoff schedule to avoid the
