Credit Card Testing
Testing Address Verification Service
Testing Address Verification Service
The Payflow testing server simulates Address Verification Service by returning a value for
AVSADDR based on the first three characters of the submitted value for STREET.
The testing server returns a value for AVSZIP based on the submitted ZIP value as shown in
the table.
If STREET starts with 667 or higher or begins with a non-numeric character, then the simulator
returns AVSADDR=X, AVSZIP=X.
Testing Card Security Code
If you submit a value for the card security code, the cardholder’s bank returns a
Yes / No / Not Supported (Y / N / X) response on whether the value matches the number on
file at the bank. Card security code is described in “Card Security Code Validation” on
page 46.
NOTE: Some processors will decline (RESULT value 12) a transaction if the card security code
does not match without returning a CVV2MATCH value. Test the results and check with
your processor to determine whether they support card security code checking.
