# Getting started

Quickly begin testing a Codapay integration.

## What you'll find

This section will cover all the steps required to quickly begin testing with one of our popular integration types, which includes:

* [Set up payments](/coda-public-technical-documentation/codapay/getting-started/set-up-payments.md)
* [Test the Hosted Payment Page API](/coda-public-technical-documentation/codapay/getting-started/test-hosted-payment-page-api.md)

Alternatively, you can test the Hosted Payment Page flow directly on our Coda Portal by following the steps in the ["Sandbox Testing"](https://portal.codapayments.com/integration/codapay/sandbox-testing) section.
