## Overview
This guide describes how to add the Affirm Telesales Add-on module for Magento. The module allows your phone representatives and administrators to provide Affirm as a payment option when creating orders in Magento. When they create an order using the Telesales option, Affirm will send the customer a link via email and SMS to being their loan application process.
**Before you begin**
Before adding the module, [you should have already installed and configured Affirm for Magento](🔗).

**Sandbox development**
Develop and test the Affirm integration in your development environment connected to our sandbox. To use our sandbox, retrieve your sandbox API keys at <https://sandbox.affirm.com/dashboard/#/apikeys> for use during integration.
Note that we only send SMS messages with the checkout link from the Affirm Live environment. During Sandbox environment testing, use email messages for the checkout link.
After development and testing, you'll need to update your integration to use your live API keys, which you can find at <https://affirm.com/dashboard/#/apikeys>.
