Payment Scheme Simulators
Run multi-rail A2A testing through a single API
Gain insights about how the Form3 API and payment rails function to help inform your payment modernisation programme. Access our non-live testing environment via a secure public connection or private connectivity for full functional testing.
Experience the world’s first full-fidelity payment rail simulator
Conducting tests in an environment that is identical to Live Production is a real game-changer. Gain confidence in your implementation, knowing that success in Testing will mean a successful launch in Production.
All the rail simulators use the same API structure as the Production version. The payment values you enter trigger different test scenarios, including all possible error conditions. The responses you receive are exactly as per payment rail.
The rail simulators are used daily by our largest customers to test edge cases, integrate with their systems, and to try out new schemes on our platform prior to going live. It is an indispensable tool for them during project ramp-up as well as in production.
The Form3 test environment is backed up with production performance and availability SLAs, and if required, paid engineering support is available.
Learn how our single JSON messaging protocol interacts with multiple schemes and can save you time on multiple scheme integrations. Test schemes from across the US, Europe and the UK.

Simulate A2A payments
Build trust and go live with confidence
Whether you are building instant push payments, updating reconciliation workflows, or integrating verification of payee, our Payment Scheme Simulators give you a production-grade environment to test it all. Try scenarios like delayed settlement, reversed transactions, or non-standard messaging — across UK, EU & US rails — over secure public endpoints or private links. All without touching production, all without surprises.
