Paypal Reference Transaction

votes

I'm currently working on e-commerce website and I need to integrate it with paypal.

All I want to do is creating a billing agreement and obtaining billing agreement ID when new user signup for the website.

And to re-issue an invoice with the saved billing agreement ID when they get service.

But I'm getting following error when I call SetExpressCheckout API endpoint for creating a billing agreement.

 Merchant not enabled for reference transactions

Some people says, even I'm working on sandbox account, I need to ask paypal to provide reference transaction. And I don't know how.

Please tell me what I have to do.

Thank you in advance.

Please be informed that even for Sandbox, you need to request the PayPal Merchant Technical Support team to enable it.You can provide your PayPal Sandbox Email address. I can enable reference Transaction for your Sandbox account.
