This guide explains how Test Mode and Live Mode work in the Yuno dashboard and how to switch between them. For API base URLs and credentials per environment, see the API Environments reference. Yuno uses a single account for both environments. You can switch between Test Mode and Live Mode from the context chip in the top bar, using the same username and password. This Test Mode/Live Mode switch is separate from the US/EMEA regional dashboards described below — it does not change which region your organization belongs to.

Regional dashboards (US and EMEA)

Yuno operates two separate regions, each with its own dashboard and API base URL: https://dashboard.y.uno (US) and https://dashboard.eu.y.uno (EMEA).
  • Each organization belongs to one region: you choose the region when your organization is set up. An organization created in US does not exist in EMEA, and vice versa.
  • Data stays in its region: each region stores its own data. Accounts, users, customers, vaulted tokens, payments, and configuration are not shared or synchronized between US and EMEA.
  • Use the base URL of your region: call the API base URL and log in to the dashboard of the region where your organization lives. For the base URLs, see API Environments.
If you need to operate in both regions, contact your Yuno representative before you set up your organization.

Understanding the environments

Yuno has two distinct environments, each serving a specific purpose:
  • Test Mode (Sandbox): When you register, your organization starts with an “Inactive” status and has access only to Test Mode. Use it to explore the dashboard, learn how features work, and run tests without affecting live operations. Test Mode is ideal for trying new configurations and integrations safely.
  • Live Mode (Production): Live Mode is where real customer transactions occur. To access it, you must submit an activation request. Once your account is active, you can run production traffic while keeping the same security and controls. Use Live Mode when you are ready to go live with your integration.

Transitioning to Live Mode

  1. Requesting activation: From the dashboard home page, submit a request for activation. Your organization’s status will change from “Inactive” to “Under Verification”. Test Mode remains available during verification.
  2. Verification process: Yuno typically completes verification within a few hours. If we need more information, we will contact you.
  3. Access granted: When verification is complete, Live Mode is enabled for your account.

Switching environments

Switching between Sandbox and Production in the dashboard is simple:
  • One-click switching: Open the context chip in the top bar and pick Live or Test.
  • Single login: One set of credentials gives you access to both environments; no separate passwords or accounts.
