# Simulate funding deposit

> Inserts a synthetic successful deposit for a funding method available to the selected account. Use this operation only in non-production test environments. It is unavailable in production.

Use a stable `method_id` returned by the deposit-methods endpoint. Payward Services resolves the method's asset and internal gateway routing; callers must not supply internal funding identifiers, gateway numbers, statuses, or flags.

This operation is not idempotent. If a request times out or otherwise has an unknown outcome, do not retry it automatically because the deposit may already have been inserted. Reconcile the account's Portfolio transactions before submitting another simulation.
