Important Setting
If your customer inputs invalid payment information when completing the checkout, such as the wrong expiration date, the transaction will be declined. When they try to complete the order again (even after fixing the mistake), they'll get a 'Duplicate Transaction' error. To avoid this, set 'Duplicate Lockout Time' in Basic Fraud Settings of your First Data account to 0.
For testing purposes, you can use any of the card numbers listed below. The test card numbers will not result in any charges to the card. Use these card numbers with any expiration date in the future.
