Automation

[steelaz]

This is my first post, so don't beat on newbie please.

 

I have Paypal Website Payments Pro as my gateway (currently running on sandbox)

 

I have successfully created new account and paid for it with sandbox credit card. I noticed that credit card is now stored on file.

 

My question is: after month passes, will my customer get an email with invoice asking to pay, or will whmcs try to charge credit card that is on file and just send a notice to customer?

 

Thanks.

It will attempt to charge the card on file. It will notify the user with the status of the payment (Not successful/Successfully charged)

Any invoice that references the gateway created will auto attempt the charge. It will fail as no CVV can be sent. You can access your risk controls at Paypal to allow it to bypass the CVV to get a successful auto charge.

 

They will also get the expiring CC warnings as their CC expiration date approaches.

Thanks everyone. I found out that these filters were disabled by default.

 

Also, Paypal says:

 

"Advanced Fraud Management Filters are free for a limited time. Beginning May 1, 2008, the cost is $20 per month plus $0.05 per transaction."

 

I guess I'll pass for now.

Uhoh...that makes a case to get the Paypal module set up to use the new recurring option then. I wasn't aware that they were going to charge to use the extra risk controls
