Hi, you are passing in your integration the following value:

 

paymentrequest_0_itemcategory="Digital"

 

But this type of integration method is deprecated as of January 1, 2017 as in our documents at this link

The error we will return is the API 10004 with a specific message: longmessage="You are not signed up to accept payment for digitally delivered goods."

Just don't pass the parameter "Digital" and will be fine.
