# Validate an Event Type

After you've [tested an event type](https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/test-new-event-types#test-the-event-type-0-0), it has to be validated to ensure proper integration with your website.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** It may take up to 30 minutes for a test transaction to appear. If your test transaction does not appear on the *test transaction* screen after 30 minutes, please [contact support](https://app.impact.com/support/portal.ihtml?createTicket=true&).
