# Going Live

> Production readiness for partner integrations.

Move to production after you have completed at least one end-to-end transaction per order type you support.

<Warning>
  For **onramp** and **offramp**, you must complete KYC on your end users — preferably through a KYC provider — before creating live orders. Liquidramp requires this for regulatory compliance because those flows involve fiat. **Swap** does not require end-user KYC.
</Warning>

## Production checklist

### Credentials and access

* [ ] Production `pk_live_*`, `sk_live_*`, `enc_live_*` issued in the [portal](https://dashboard.liquidramp.com)
* [ ] `liquidramp-client-id` stored in a secrets manager
* [ ] IP whitelist configured if required
* [ ] Partner KYB approved
* [ ] End-user KYC in place for onramp and offramp (not required for swap)

### Security

* [ ] HMAC signing uses `enc_*`, not `sk_*`
* [ ] Webhook endpoint verifies HMAC and timestamp
* [ ] Keys never logged, committed, or exposed client-side (`sk_*` and `enc_*` stay on your backend)
* [ ] HTTPS on your webhook endpoint

### Integration robustness

* [ ] Error handling for all HTTP status classes
* [ ] Retry with backoff for `5xx` and `429`
* [ ] Client-side idempotency via `merchant_reference`
* [ ] Webhook deduplication by `event` + `data.reference`

### Operational

* [ ] Webhook URL registered in the portal
* [ ] Alerting on webhook delivery failures and sustained API `5xx`
* [ ] Runbook for stuck orders (`GET /v1/orders/:reference?include=timeline`)
