# Environments

> Sigma provides access to its API and management dashboard in two environments.

### Sandbox

The Sandbox environment is for testing and development. You can make unlimited requests at no cost. Successful requests return static responses so you can validate your integration without triggering live checks or consuming wallet balance.

Use the sandbox to:

* Test your API integration before going live
* Verify request and response handling in your code
* Develop and debug without affecting production data

### Production

The Production environment is the live environment. All requests made here perform real checks, consume wallet balance, and produce real compliance data.

Only switch to production once your integration has been tested and verified in the sandbox.

### Base URLs
