Hello,
i need to create a sandbox account to test my e-commerce.
Even if I had a lot of error messages, at some point i succeded in creating a sandbox business account (i don't know the reason of the error, i just clicked on "create account" and it worked at some point), but if i try to creat a personal account i have this message:
Something went wrong. The sandbox account could not be created. Please try again.
If you wish to report this error please include the following error id: 52dfe6402d8c9
Im reading i should have a personal and business account created by default, but i don't have them.
What should i do?
Thank you
