Good day, I'm encountering an issue with my PayPal account. I'm a bit confused as to why my PayPal interface suddenly displays "sandbox" when I attempt to make transactions or navigate through the system. Could you possibly clarify what the "sandbox" notation signifies and why it might be appearing on my account? Is it a security measure, a test mode, or perhaps an indication of some sort of error? I'd appreciate any insight you could provide to help me resolve this matter and ensure my PayPal account is functioning properly. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

PayPal sandbox serves as a self-contained, virtual testing ground, mirroring the functionalities of the actual PayPal production environment.

Within this sandbox, users can safely initiate and observe the processing of PayPal API requests, without any interaction with live PayPal accounts.

The sandbox environment simulates the live PayPal experience, providing an identical interface and response structure to that of the production system.

Developers can utilize the sandbox to validate their payment flows, test error handling, and ensure compliance with PayPal's policies and requirements before going live.
