# 3D Secure test scenarios (/v5/expanded/3d-secure/test-scenarios)
Use PayPal's sandbox to test 3D Secure scenarios with test cards. Simulate various responses to ensure a secure payment experience for your users.
In the PayPal sandbox, you can use test cards to simulate various payment scenarios and generate a 3D Secure response. This page includes test cards for both purchase flows and save payment method flows.
## Test cases and card details for purchase flows [#test-cases-and-card-details-for-purchase-flows]
The PayPal sandbox supports end-to-end testing for purchase flows using payment methods issued by Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners, and other card brands.
Use the test cards in the following table to:
1. Simulate a purchase.
2. Generate a 3D Secure response.
The test cards in this section only work for purchase flows. Don't use the cards in this section to test [Save payment methods](/v5/save-payment-methods/overview). See **Test cases and card details for Save payment methods**.
Find test cases and card details for the following countries:
* United States
* Great Britain
* China
* Australia
* France
* Germany
* Italy
* Japan
* Mexico
* Spain
> **Info:** **Tip:** Enter a future expiration date and any 3-digit CVV, or 4-digit CVV for American Express, to proceed.

## Test cases and card details for Save payment methods [#test-cases-and-card-details-for-save-payment-methods]
The PayPal sandbox supports end-to-end testing for [saving payment methods](/api/payment-tokens/save-without-purchase/cards#setup-token-for-card-with-3d-secure-verification) issued by Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and ELO.
Use the test cards in the following table to:
1. Simulate saving a payment method during purchase or for purchase later.
2. Generate a 3D Secure response.
The test cards in this section only work for the [Payment Method Tokens v3 API](/api/payment-tokens/v3). Don't use the cards in this section to test purchase flows. See **Test cases and card details for purchase flows**.
> **Warning:** **Important:** For expiration year values for all test cards in the table below, use the current year + 3 years. The expiration month should always be 01.
