How to test a Subscription Button

Hi,

I created a PayPal Subscribe button and I want to test it. To test it, I entered the information of the Sandbox Users, but the system doesn't give the CSC (3-digit credit card code), so the system keeps on telling me that the field is requires, I enter any 3-digits and it doesn't go through. Is this the right way to test a button and if it is what do you enter for the CSC?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for posting to the MTS Community.

If you are pointed to sandbox, you can use the credit card generation tool in PayPal Developer.

  • Log into the developer dashboard at https://developer.paypal.com
  • Click on the Credit Card Generator in the left menu
  • Choose the Country
  • Choose the card type
  • Click Generate CC

The Credit Card Generator will create a card, cvv, and expiration date for your testing. Since these are test cards they will not work in the live environment. They are only for the Sandbox Environment.

 

Most of the time if you keep your payments under $1,000.00 in sandbox they are more likely to be approved.

 

Thank you,

Jennifer
