# Simulate Transactions

DOKU Sandbox allows you to simulate transactions before going live and accepting real payments. The simulator works for all integration methods, as well as no-integration products such as Payment Link and Digital Catalog. You can simulate transactions with DOKU Sandbox by following the steps below:

1. Log in to [DOKU Sandbox](https://sandbox.doku.com/bo/login?utm_source=docs), and then access the side navigation bar
2. Select **Settings** from the menu
3. **Settings** page will appear. Under **Payment Settings** section, select **Simulator**
4. **Simulator** page will appear, select the payment method you wish to test, matching the one chosen during checkout.
5. Click **Simulate**.

A simulation guide specific to each payment method will be displayed on the page.
