Travelbase operates two separate environments for testing and production usage.
Sandbox
Used for development and testing. No real bookings or financial transactions are processed.
Live
Used for real customer bookings and production traffic.
Each environment is fully isolated and has its own API keys, wallets, and data.

Sandbox requests never create real bookings or move real funds.
