How to Get a Free Payflow Pro Test Account


If you're looking to integrate PayPal's Payflow Pro into your payment system, you can start with a free test account. This trial account doesn't require credit card information initially and allows you full access to test Payflow features for 30 days. Post the trial period, you'll be prompted to provide credit card details for ongoing service billing.

To sign up, visit the Payflow Pro registration page. This is an ideal way to explore and assess the functionality of Payflow Pro without any initial investment. Ensure you're ready to update your billing information once the trial expires to continue using the service seamlessly.



RESULT Values for Transaction Declines or Errors

The transaction result displays the overall status of the transaction. The result associated with each transaction appears on all PayPal Manager detail reports. If you use Post or Silent Post, then the RESPMSG parameter returns the description of the RESULT code.

  • A value of 0 (zero) indicates that no errors occurred and the transaction was approved.

  • A value greater than zero indicates a decline or an error.

RESULT

RESPMSG and Explanation

0

Approved

1

User authentication failed. Error is caused by one or more of the following:

  • Invalid Processor information entered. Contact merchant bank to verify.

  • "Allowed IP Address" security feature implemented. The transaction is coming from an unknown IP address. For more information, refer to Allowed IP Addresses.

  • You are using a test (not active) account to submit a transaction to the live PayPal servers. Change the URL from pilot-payflowpro.paypal.com to payflowpro.paypal.com.

2

Invalid tender type. Your merchant bank account does not support the following credit card type that was submitted.

3

Invalid transaction type. Transaction type is not appropriate for this transaction. For example, you cannot credit an authorization-only transaction.

Fraud Protection Services Filter — Declined by filters

126

Fraud Protection Services Filter — Flagged for review by filters

Important Note: Result code 126 indicates that a transaction triggered a fraud filter. This is not an error, but a notice that the transaction is in a review status. The transaction has been authorized but requires you to review and to manually accept the transaction before it will be allowed to settle.

If this is a new Payflow account, this result occurred because all new accounts include a “test drive” of the Fraud Protection Services at no charge. The filters are on by default. You can modify these settings based on your business needs.

Result code 126 is intended to give you an idea of the kind of transaction that is considered suspicious to enable you to evaluate whether you can benefit from using the Fraud Protection Services.

To eliminate result 126, turn the filters off.
