Live Payment Development: Successful and then Returned. [PAYMENT_DENIED]

[Temp20240120]

Hi Developers,

I'm testing my live payment function with my real credit card. I got the error as below:

My credit card history showed that the transactions were successful and then returned by PayPal.  I have used two different credit cards with two different holder names and billing addresses. So, it shouldn't be the problem of credit card information.

Good day @Temp20240120 

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

It appears that there may be an issue with the funding source provided by the customer/buyer. I would kindly request that you ask the customer/buyer to try using different/valid card details for their payments.

Please refer to the guide links provided below:

I would suggest to please try to process a test payment using a card that is not associated to your PayPal Account, since merchants can't process self-payments.

If your still facing issues, please create an MTS ticket via -  https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US  with the detailed information and error details.

Sincerely,

Kavya
