Hi, all
I have been using masspay feature for almost 10 years without any problem.
And today when I was making payments to my members, I uploaded the txt file. Then the error message showed up.
"Your file is missing information. Review"
And I clicked on the review
It shows
- Line 1: Enter payment amount as #,###,###.##
- Line 2: Enter payment amount as #,###,###.##
- Line 3: Enter payment amount as #,###,###.##
- etc...
I am sure that I put the payment amount correctly!
And I have been using same masspay txt file template during past 10 years, and nothing wrong with it.
So what happened to mass pay feature today? Anyone can help? Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem today. Same Masspay file format I've used for 10+ years. Same error message. I have tried downloading the sample file provided by paypal and even adjusting my CSV file to match but nothing works
