API Sanbox -- callback not working ( /requesttopay )

When exactly the callback we pass in the headers [ X-Callback-Url ] gets called? I have tried different testing numbers. But the callback url that I provided is never called, even after hours.

Remittance/token

Getting no response while I was trying to generate the Token under Remittance Category from the url (https://momodeveloper.mtn.com/docs/services/remittance/operations/token-POST/console). When I clicked send button it loads and get disabled for few seconds and then gets back to normal state without getting any response message. I passed the below two parameters 1) Authorization ( Converted the UserId and ApiKey into base64 format) 2) Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key (Obtained from Momo portal) Even I would like to know whether is there any character needed in between userId and ApiKey before converting into base64 format ?
