## Getting started

To begin integrating with CryptoMate, you'll need an API key. Sign up on our website to obtain one.

The platform operates in two environments:

* **Sandbox** — a testing and development environment with no real-world blockchain implications. Use it to experiment and build your integration safely.
* **Production** — live environment where transactions are recorded on the main blockchain.
