Testing Credit Card Transactions
To test your application, direct all transactions to pilot-payflowpro.verisign.com. Transactions
directed to this URL are processed through PayPal’s simulated payment network, enabling
you to test the configuration and operation of your application or shopfront — no money
changes hands. (You must activate your account and configure your application for live
transactions before accepting real orders.)
Testing Guidelines
 While testing, use only the credit card numbers listed in this chapter. Other numbers
produce an error.
 Expiry Date must be a valid date in the future (use the mmyy format).
 To view the credit card processor that you have selected for testing, see Account Info >
Processor Info in PayPal Manager.
Credit Card Numbers Used for Testing
Use the following credit card numbers for testing. Any other card number produces a general
failure.
