can not configure credit card to test funding failure with CCREJECT REFUSED - paypal

Loggin into my sandbox I can create a credit card. Whenever i try to change the first address line to "CCREJECT-REFUSED" I can't save the card because it gets rejected.
I can create a address with that line. But when I assing the address to a existing card it rejects to save the data again ...
How should I change the address?

I was able to solve this by upgrading my Sandbox account making the payment from PERSONAL to BUSINESS.
At one point this process also fails for me, but if you log out and back in, your account should be upgraded.
From here you should be able to follow these steps (taken from PayPal support) to create a credit card with CCREJECT-REFUSED.
So, login to your sandbox account of choice, click on profile > my money > debit and credit cards and click on "update" or use the direct URL below :
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/businessprofile/mymoney
Click on "Add a Card", select the "Add Credit Card" tab near the top and enter the following details.
Card Number: 5411896071554102
Expiration Date : 12/22
CSC : 123
Billing Address : click on "change" and in the "address line 1" section, enter "CCREJECT-REFUSED" and then click on "Add Card".

I can't simulate credit card failures via rejection trigger in the PayPal Sandbox. What is the right flow?

Hi guys I am trying to simulate card errors in the sandbox. But can't understand how I can trigger it...
Simulate card errors
To simulate credit card failures, pass a rejection trigger in the First Name or Name on Card field in your existing advanced credit and debit card payment integration. You must use a Visa test card number, for example 4012 8888 8888 1881. Use any date in the future for the card expiry date and any three-digit number for the CVV field.

Rejection triggers
https://developer.paypal.com/api/rest/sandbox/card-testing/#link-rejectiontriggers
Steps:
Go to the dev.pay pay
Create some personal ACC in the sandbox
enter image description here
Going to the https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/ and log in with this acc
Make a Visa card as a prefer and change the address to the CCREJECT-BANK_ERROR
enter image description here
Go to the Sandbox payment and haven't any payment rejection
I also tried to change the name, but the payment either goes through completely or gives an error without even reaching the payment...
enter image description here
enter image description here
Sorry, I spent a lot of time on this and still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong... Could you tell me?
The list of pre-generated card numbers can only be used for Advanced Credit and Debit Card integrations.
For payments on a PayPal.com checkout page or with the standard "Debit or Credit Card" black button, a newly-generated (random) card from https://developer.paypal.com/api/rest/sandbox/card-testing/#link-creditcardgeneratorfortesting must be used.
To simulate a decline, use CCREJECT-REFUSED in the name or address line 1. Depending on what you are testing you may need to add the card to a www.sandbox.paypal.com payer account with a normal address and change the address line 1 to CCREJECT-REFUSED after adding it.

Bank wasn't able to verify your VISA while payment

I am new to PayPal integration I am testing the payment process but facing some issue while checking out. I tried all mention cards in PayPal website but didn't work any.
Error Message:
Sorry, your bank wasn't able to verify your VISA x-**** at this time.
Please choose another way to pay.
Go to the PayPal Dashboard from the account from which you created the Sandbox accounts and PayPal app. There in the Mock section in the side navigation go to Credit Card Generator. Here select the country that you have chosen while making the business sandbox account and click Generate CC.
Now copy the details of the card generated. Now go to the site where you have integrated PayPal checkout and while making payment instead of choosing the default card click on add Debit/Credit card and add a card with the details the card that you generated. You'll be redirected to a payment page, fill a random password there and your dummy transaction will be completed if everything else in the code is fine.
You need to go to your paypal developer account and then find the mock menu and then select credit card generator
Generate a credit card based on your county
Now try to add a new card on the Paypal page where you are getting error.
Enter the details of the mock card
Then again try to do that payment.
You may be asked to enter a password. Just click on the new-user/forgot password link.
Everything will work fine
I faced this similar issue while integrating Paypal with my app. What I did found that Paypal integration for sandbox account does have an issue while payment if the currency used, is other than USD.
Yes, other solution may work if you want to generate a fake credit card and add it to the Paypal page.
But if you don't want to add any other credit card to the Paypal account and use it for testing purposes, what you can do is to change the country of both business and personal accounts to USA & currency to USD, also set the app to accept the payment in USD.
It will work fine.

How to add money to a Paypal sandbox account, after it has been created?

I specified an amount that was too low for my testing needs, when creating a personal paypal sandbox account. Is there any way to add money to an account, after it has been created?
If you need actual funds in that account you could use Send Money from another sandbox account and pay the account you want to fund.
You really don't need funds in the account to test payments, though. As long as the account is verified and confirmed it'll fall to "Instant Transfer" and you won't have any problems sending payments using that account.
Login using your developer PayPal account https://developer.paypal.com/
Go to 'My Account' on the top right section of the page.
Go to Accounts under Sandbox.
See your sandbox account and click on the Clone link.
Fill the details and mention the amount you want to have and click on Create.
This is helpful in case if the amount in the existing sandbox account is exhausted.
Don't go to sandbox, go to developer.paypal.com
Log in with your real paypal account (not sandbox).
Go to Sandbox - > Accounts on the left.
Click in the button "Create account"
You will be able to add any amount you want.
Follow these steps:-
Go to https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accounts/
Click on the email address used for the account (email address)
Now two option you will get --> Profile and notification (just below that email you clicked)
Choose profile then a popup will come
Now choose funding tab in popups.
Now at the bottom choose edit button and edit the balance and save.
That's it.
Why not duplicate the sandbox account (to have another name), then delete the orginal, then duplicate the new created one with your original name ?
This seems to work with buyer account, seller are usually used with api key
Just create a new account inside your Paypal developer account and simply enter the number how much you want in your account.

paypal sandbox - can't change password

When I try to change the password of my paypal sandbox test account, for security, it asks me to enter either a full credit card number or full bank account number. It gives me the last few digits of these accounts, as in the image below:
So the basic problem is this credit card number and bank account number were auto-created by the sandbox when I created these account. I have no idea what either of these numbers actually are. Here's what I have tried:
tried creating a new credit card from a valid test card #, tried making it primary. That all worked, but when I go back to the verification screen, my new card doesn't show up -- it's just the same default one.
tried googling to find what that test credit card number, or the test bank account numbers are. No dice.
For the security challenge, tried choosing secret questions instead of account numbers. There's a glitch in paypal and it won't even take me to that screen, still takes me to cc/bank.
Tried resetting password from "forgot password", but the email never comes, because it's sandbox.
I just want to change my password. How can I do this?
You can change your sandbox account password from developer.paypal.com.
Go to developer.paypal.com and log in
Click "Applications"
Click "Sandbox accounts"
Select one of your test accounts, then click "Profile"
Click "Change password"
Enter a new password, then click "Save"
NOTE: If you're trying to change the password and see the error message "please try again" after clicking "Save", make sure the new password has these characteristics:
between 8 and 20 characters
mix of uppercase, lowercase, letters, numbers, and symbols
Hope this helps! Let me know if you run into any issues.
Thanks,
