I am a developer at a company called Kibboko. We would like to know is there any way we could either query the database though API or get notification by email whenever that occurs. Thanks for the help.

   Hi Bo,

   Yes that is easy to do; simply enter the email address where you would like to be notified in the configuration section. We use it internally to receive notifications of all user activities.

   Hi Adam,

   That is great, thanks for the prompt reply. And one more question is that would it be possible do that programmatically by APIs?

   Yep, we send push notifications for events:

   Awesome! We will go ahead and try the service. I have more questions though. The first is that we don't want to deal with all the PCI stuff on our end at all. So that means the hosted payment page is the only to go right?
   Also How do we test the entire workflow without real charges occurring? Is there like a sandbox environment ? Thanks!

   Yep, hosted payment pages is your best bet to avoid PCI issues.

   When you sign up, you are automatically in "Developer" mode, so all transactions will be processed using our Gateway Simulator, and nothing will be charged.

   Thanks for trying us ou! Let me know if you have any questions during your testing.
