# How do I access the Core Payment dashboard?

### Your credentials
Once your account is validated, you receive by email:
* click the link received by email to set your password,
* go to [dashboard.corebycarlo.com](https://dashboard.corebycarlo.com/login),
* enter the 6-digit verification code (strong two-factor authentication, OTP), which will be requested at every login for security reasons,
* you access your dashboard.

### What you see in the dashboard
The live dashboard gives you access to all your subscribed products:
* **Core Checkout** — transaction tracking, refunds, exports
* **Core PayLink** — create and track your payment links
* **Settings** — API keys, account configuration
All products are visible by default.

### Sandbox environment (Core Checkout only)
If you are integrating Core Checkout via API, you also have access to a sandbox environment to test your integration before going live.
Your sandbox credentials are sent separately, with dedicated login details.
