Authorize.Net ARB(Automated Recurring Billing) Does not Validating dummy Credit Cards in Live Mode

upendrar — Fri, 22 Jun 2012 07:15:32 GMT

Hi All,

I am using ARB method of Authorize.Net and everything looks fine for me in one developer account. When I test the integration in live with live mode by some dummy(test) credit card numbers then it generates the subscription ID for those dummy cards and the subscription status is successful.

I mean it is not validating the dummy cards.

So, is there any way to validate the dummy cards??

I am using the following Xml Schema for ARB integration.

I mean it is not validating the dummy cards.

Correct, it doesn't run any transaction until the first schedule billing.

So, is there any way to validate the dummy cards??

You can use AIM to test the CC(AUTH_ONLY then cancel) before creating an ARB.
