Resolving error "DPRP is disabled for this merchant."

[iskcononline]

We are trying to set up Paid Memberships Pro on Wordpress. We initially found that we were not setup for Paypal Payments Pro. That now seems to be resolved after multiple calls to Paypal.

However, we now get an error "DPRP is disabled for this merchant." when submitting a transaction.

We accept subscriptions through another plugin GiveWP with no issues. We also have subscription buttons enabled. What is the problem?

This plugin uses Classic API - SOAP

Hello @iskcononline ,

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community. I do apologize for the frustration.

DPRP is a recurring payments API that is only available with Website Payment's Pro accounts. 

PayPal isn't accepting new users for this feature, and we require existing users to upgrade to our Advanced Debit and Credit solution that supports EMV 3DS (3DS 2.0) for PSD2. Our Advanced Debit and Credit solution enables highly customizable custom-card fields and reduced PCI Compliance requirements. For more information, see Set up advanced credit and debit card payments.

What that means is that we cannot setup an account with Website Payment's Pro and DPRP since it is not compliant with the new PCI Compliance requirements.

We highly recommend using a plugin that uses Subscriptions API, or Payflow Recurring Payment's API.

Thank you,

Jennifer
