If you are asking what CVV to use for a Checkout.com test transaction, the short answer is: use the test values supplied in your Checkout.com sandbox or test-card documentation. For many standard sandbox cards, any three-digit CVV is accepted, but scenario-based test cards may require the exact CVV listed with that card. Never use a real cardholder's CVV while testing.

What CVV should I use in Checkout.com test payments?

Use the sandbox test-card details provided for your account. If the card record says any CVV, enter a generic three-digit test value; if it lists a specific CVV, use that exact value so the test scenario behaves as expected.

Does Checkout.com validate CVV in test mode?

Test mode can simulate CVV checks, but the result depends on the test card and rule you are exercising. Use documented test cards to trigger approvals or CVV-related declines consistently.
