#### Get your Credentials {#get-your-credentials}

1. Open a browser and go to our [Developer Portal](https://devportal.openbanking.mastercard.com).
2. Click on the **Sign up (or login)** button.
3. Log in to your account. If you do not have an account, click **Sign up** and create one for free.
4. Click on **Apps** , then click the **Create new app** button.
5. Take note of your `Client ID` and `Client Secret`.

Note: These credentials only provide access to the sandbox environment and therefore only expose *Test banks* .
