In general, when testing credit card transactions with PayPal as the processor, I recommend using a randomized credit card number. The number must have a valid BIN, a valid check digit, and must be the correct length for the card type, but aside from that, the card number can be random.
I would ask your merchant to try testing with one of these random card
numbers. If they are still having issues after that, please let me know
and I can look into the issue. |
I suggest using a site such as
http://getcreditcardnumbers.com to get randomized
card numbers.
