Why did I get random approvals, declines, and timeouts when testing PayPal Payments Pro with Payflow in the Sandbox?
- Use the credit card number assigned to your Sandbox test account. When you create a new Sandbox test account on the Developer site, the Sandbox assigns you a unique credit card number, but you can use any three-digit number as the Card Verification Number. Here's how to create a test account:
- Log in to the PayPal Developer Portal.
- Navigate to Sandbox > Accounts.
- Click Create Account and follow the directions on screen. Refer to Sandbox Test Accounts in the Developer Documentation for more information.
- You can use a credit card generator to create a credit card number and associate it with a Sandbox account. For more information, see How do I create an additional credit card number for a Sandbox account?
