**Will update the following issue as I can't delete a post so read with clarity at the bottom**

After 20 minute chat with Square support that can only copy and paste answers an not actually answer a specific question I finally obtained the following

> **Me**: How do I test Joomla/HikaShop in the Sandbox as provided. I have got to the payment page and looking for dummy card coordinates

> **Square Support:** Currently, the only way to test your site’s checkout page is to test it out on your live website.
> Start by setting up an online discount voucher for yourself for 100% off an item (or 99% if you’d like to be charged something minimal to understand the entire process), and then use that voucher to purchase something.
> When finished, cancel the order, refund yourself if you were charged anything and unpublish your site.

> **Me**: So there is no other way of Sandbox tessting

> **Square Support:** The Sandbox is not for testing web sites such as you have supplied. It's the developers responsibility to provide a test bed for you.

Looks like I'm required to set up the site as a live one and use live card coordinates relating to a product with a $0.01 value and use their live gateway to test :sick:

**EDIT**
Just been given information from a mate relating to test cards and using the sand box which support person categorically denied was there.

[ Here is the link to the test card information](https://developer.squareup.com/docs/devtools/sandbox/payments) the Support contact said wasn't available or able to be used.

I just did a test and yes it does work :woohoo:
Now to get other functionality working

Apologies for the clutter here. :blush:
While the Square system is nicer than others from a customer perspective and offers stuff that others don't I've had three support connections and each provided conflicting responses.
