Hello,

 

I'm making a WooCommerce website.

 

When I try to checkout in Sandbox mode, it works well.

 

But in Live mode, the error message is as below.

"We're sorry, things don't appear to be working right now. Please try again later."

 

Also, the URL looks like this.

Hi Solomons, using a 3rd party eCommerce like WooCommerce requires that you provide to them your API credentials. When you switch from Sandbox to live make sure that you provided on the WooCommerce payment method module config page the Live credentials otherwise you will not be able to use Live payments. This is the main issue while receiving that error.

You can also check on WooCommerce forums about how to set the PayPal credentials on their eCommerce / module, I found this for example: PayPal Checkout 

Thanks.
