# Go live

This page helps you switch from sandbox API keys to live API keys. Build and test your integration in the sandbox first.

Your code stays the same. Only the API key changes. But with a live API key, orders spend real money from your store wallet, and real customers wait for them. Work through this list before you switch API keys. Your ticks are saved in this browser only.

## Switch the API key

1. **Get live access**

   Complete business verification in the dashboard. After it is approved, the **Developers** page can create **Live** API keys.
2. **Create one live API key per system**

   Name each API key after the system that uses it, such as *Production checkout*. Then you can rotate (replace) or revoke (turn off) the API key of one system without affecting the others.
3. **Fund the store wallet**

   Recharge the store wallet to at least 100 SAR, or ask Cardzone about a postpaid store wallet. Check the balance with [Get balance](https://docs.cardzone.ai/reference/balance/retrieve/).
4. **Place one small real order**

   Order the cheapest voucher you sell, with your own contact details. Check that the order reaches `fulfilled` in both a webhook and a poll.
