Why did I get result code 114?

Issue
PayPal returned result code 114 - Card Security Code (CSC) Mismatch. 

Cause
A result code 114 is commonly a bank decline, and will reflect on the PayPal reports as a declined payment. The bank may hold the funds until further review. 

Solution
Check that a valid Card Security Code (CSC) is being passed and that the CSC value contains no spaces. If necessary, contact the issuing bank to have them release the funds.
