Testing PayPal Payments

To carry out a test purchase:

  • 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
