Why did I get API error code 10525?

In one of the following API calls, the amount entered is zero:

• DoDirectPayment.
• DoReferenceTransaction.
  

Here's how to resolve this issue:

• Review your API call to ensure a value of $0.01 or more is being submitted.
• Use BillingType=RecurringPayments/MerchantInitiatedBilling instead of creating a Recurring Profile/Billing Agreement ID with a zero amount.
• For DCC (Direct Credit Card), the TRXTYPE should be A for a zero authorization (also known as a card verification call).
