Good day @cromeyellow,
Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.
Third party platforms eCommerce develops their own plugins/modules.
Could you please contact the support of eCommerce OpenCart to cross check internal integration setup and make sure you have granted required API scope permissions to OpenCart to perform all type of API operations on your behalf.
Merchants usually receives this error "AUTHENTICATION_FAILURE", when the third party eCommerce partner on-boards the merchant with limited permissions.
Please refer the below guide links.

https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/partner-referrals/v2/
If your still facing any issues, please create a MTS ticket via - https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US with the detail information and error details.
Sincerely,
Chiranjeevi
