I had create a production account with developer token 

After that. I create a test account. 

But when i link production account with test account. I got error: 
The manager cannot create more client accounts.

Hello,

You cannot link a test account with a production account. You can use the developer token generated from the production account with your test account.

Here is our guide on Test Accounts for more information on test accounts and how to use the API with them.

Cheers,

Hi, I know this thread is old but I want to know if there is a way to verify that the test account I created is associated with the Production account. As of now I just see a blank account and no indication that I can use my token with it.

Hi Ben,

This is currently not possible since test accounts belong to a completely different hierarchy than production accounts. While it is true that a developerToken belonging to a production account can be used to target test accounts, there is no way to associate these accounts to each other.
