How to use B2 test cards

B2 test cards are great for testing if your integration supports various payment methods. For example, to test if your integration accepts Visa cards, make a test payment on your Adyen test terminal using the B2 Visa card with PAN 476173******0043 from the Europe set or 476173******0011 from the North America set.

With B2 test cards, you can test declines in the same way as with an Adyen test card. For instructions, see Simulating declined payments.

B2 test cards don't let you trigger a CVM by using a specific amount in the test payment. Also, you can't test offline payments except when using the French Mastercard card from the Europe set.

Testing Manual Key Entry (MKE)

To test MKE with a B2 test card, always use 03/30 as the expiration date. Don't use the expiration date printed on the B2 test card itself.
