Why did I get API error code 10422?

The bank-issuing card provider of the payment declined the transaction. This can occur for reasons such as insufficient funds, among others. When this occurs, the buyer is redirected back to PayPal to select a new payment method.

See the Developer Portal for a complete list of NVP/SOAP API error codes.
