Error message 4000 from paypal:

Posted by vijay


Recently I worked with paypal integration..When sending synchronization request, if you got an error message number 4000.

Its denote that you crossed limitation sending request for the particular transaction ID..
For an every transaction id paypal send synchronization request only five times.

Note: For security reasons, PayPal will only allow you to use the transaction id to get a response up to 5 times. After that it will be invalidated and you will get an error back instead of the transaction data. Fair enough for regular use, but found it a bit annoying while developing since it took some tries to get the result I wanted :P

Hi.

For creating merchant service or account in paypal, we must choose what type of account is suitable for your website. Basically the following merchant services are available in Paypal service.

1. Paypal express checkout
2. Website payment pro

PayPal express checkout:
For creating PayPal express checkout account, just you need to add your credit card to paypal.
The user will review payment information, and if everything is OK, enter the login credentials. After this, PayPal will redirect him to the URL you specified with RETURNURL when you called SetExpressCheckout.
Pricing details:
·         No monthly fees

When you’re doing transaction with your merchant account they get following  transaction fees..


2.4% to 3.4% + $0.30 USD

In normally paypal have sale and authorization transaction, many developer try to know the difference between the two transactions.

Authorization Transaction:

When doing paypal transaction if set paymentaction is authorization,
Then when doing transaction, amount has not credited in merchant account. When checking transaction view payment status would be pending. Once merchant has authorized the transaction amount then the amount credited in to merchant account.
Sample shot as …


Sale Transaction:

When default the paypal use sale transaction. Paymentaction has only optional one…
Once the transaction has completed the amount credited to merchant account. So there no need to authorize the amount.

Order transaction:

if set paymentaction is authorization then use the Authorization & Capture API to authorize and capture the payment payments. The Merchant Services on the PayPal website let you capture payments only for authorizations, not for orders.

I hope you find something useful about paypal..
