Here is my situation, I am trying to plug in my PayPal API details into an application that was developed for me. PayPal API details were provided as a placeholder, and it worked fine. When I plugged mine in, however, it would just fail each time. I realize this is extremely vague, and you probably wont be able to help me with so much generalization, however any tips would help! The code is below. In addition, if you know of a way I can get more details about what is going on (an error code, etc) it would also help so I could do more research as well.
Finally, the solution I had come up with before is that I would need to be an upgraded account, however I just need to know whether I need to add a credit card or a bank.
