Everything is working just fine in test environment. I signed up for the Test API keys and such thru FedEx web services, and everything is working on my website as expected. I am now in the stages of moving to production. FedEx has you move from their test API keys to a production key. In order to do this, they are also asking for a credit card (stated that it is required for billing purposes) My question is that I am only using FedEx for rate services, so I am unclear why or if I need to concern my self with them wanting this information. Am I correct that no funds are transferred directly to FedEx (or any invoices created) that they would bill me for? I am just using the rate service to obtain the proper shipping costs, but those funds go to me thru my payment gateway correct? I am just a little confused and was thrown off a bit by their request for this. I dont want any funds being directly transferred to them or any bills generated... I am going to deliver the packages myself thru Fedex. I just need the application to correctly give the rate needed. If anyone out there has had experience with FedEx or how this works with their production APIs and their accounts & billing, I would greatly appreciate some insight. Thanks!

It's probably used for when you use their labeling API or collect on delivery system. In fact, you should even be able to stay in "stage mode" to get the rates since it doesn't change anything for you that it uses the live mode or not. The rates returned by FedEx will still be the same.

Not sure about leaving the test APIs in there, There may be an expiration date on those and that might cause some problems down the road. hopefully this will help someone else, Thanks!

So I don't receive valid reply. I contact Fedex that says to ask how to change the endpoint in your module to stay in test mode. Thank's for your help.

Also, note that the best solution will be to directly ask them a production mode credentials, to properly use that plugin.
