# How to ignore test card from validation

FraudLabs Pro will automatically flag the order as high risk if the test card numbers (for example, 4242424242424242) was found in the order transaction. This is because in reality, legitimate clients will not submit their orders using a test credit card. However, we do understand that you may need to use test card during your payment gateway testing. If you do, you can follow the below procedures to bypass this restriction:

1. Login to the [merchant area](https://www.fraudlabspro.com/merchant/login).
2. Click on the **Settings > General**menu.
3. Under the **Validation Exception**, enable the **Ignore test credit card validation**.
4. Click on **Save** button

Please be remember to restore back the settings after you have done with your testing.
