**What is Merchant Simulator?** The merchant simulator is used to simulate the end-to-end payment flows for online merchants. A template is a mapping of APIs and their mock responses using which merchants can simulate the scenarios like Success, Failure, and Pending.

**Benefits of using the Merchant Simulator**

  • Even when the PhonePe UAT server is down, the Merchant simulator gives you a seamless user experience through which you will be able to test the end-to-end payment flow without any interruptions.

  • Similarly, for Pending - "subscription_setup_upiIntent_pending" and for Failure - "subscription_setup_upiIntent_failure"



Once configured, you can initiate and complete the payment on the UAT Simulator app.
