Testing PayPal Payments
To carry out a test purchase:
- Go to https://developer.paypal.com/ and register for a "Sandbox Test Environment" in addition to your PayPal business account.
- Once you have registered, you can create a test (buyer) account in your "sandbox". This buyer test account is then used in place of real customer details for a test transaction.
- Before carrying out a test transaction, make sure that you logged on to your "Sandbox Test Environment".
- You can now test payment through your e-commerce application (for example your shop). You will need to transfer the "mode" parameter with the value "test" (mode=test). Use the buyer test account that you have just created as the test customer.
Enabling Digital Goods
If you use PayPal's "Digital Goods" feature, please note:
- "Digital Goods" must enabled separately by PayPal. Please contact your PayPal customer service advisor to have the feature enabled.
- Separate PAYONE configuration and activation is also required; please contact your customer advisor in the Merchant Service to arrange this.
- Transfer of the configuration is mandatory for a Digital Goods retailer using PayPal.
- The necessary data will only be transferred to PayPal if the parameter is activated
