Testing the Buyer Authentication Service
7
For testing, the first three characters of the submitted card security code value determine the
card security code result, as shown in
Table 7.7.
If you are using card security code checking and the Silent Post feature, then you can identify
which transactions have been voided by looking for the following value:
RESPMSG=CSCDECLINED.
NOTE: Be sure to look at the response message for your transaction. Even if your result code is
0, your response message might say that the transaction has failed.
Testing the Buyer Authentication Service
In Test mode:
z All test transactions go to PayPal’s simulator servers.
z No transactions are submitted to the Processor network, therefore no funds are transferred.
z Password/PIN: Test transaction results are determined solely by the test account number
submitted, so you can enter any password on the test Buyer Authentication page.
