In ebay Order API - initiateCheckoutSession (guest checkout), adding credit card information returns error. I am testing in sandbox environment.

API : https://api.sandbox.ebay.com/buy/order/v1/guest_checkout_session/initiate Request Body:

     {
 "creditCard":
   {
     "accountHolderName": "Frank Smith",
     "cardNumber": "5100000001598174",
     "cvvNumber": "012",
     "expireMonth": 10,
     "expireYear": 2019,
     "brand": "MASTERCARD",
     "billingAddress":
     {
       "firstName": "Frank",
       "lastName": "Smith",
       "addressLine1": "3737 Any St",
       "city": "San Jose",
       "stateOrProvince": "CA",
       "postalCode": "95134",
       "country": "US"
     }
 },
   "contactEmail": "fsmith1234@anymail.com",
   "contactFirstName": "Frank",
   "contactLastName": "Smith",
   "shippingAddress": {
     "recipient": "Frank Smith",
     "phoneNumber": "617 555 1212",
     "addressLine1": "3737 Any St",
     "city": "San Jose",
     "stateOrProvince": "CA",
     "postalCode": "95134",
     "country": "US"
   },
   "lineItemInputs": [ 
     {
       "quantity": 1,
       "itemId": "v1|110188913683|0"
     }
   ]
 }

Response:

 {
     "errors": [
         {
             "errorId": 15000,
             "domain": "API_ORDER",
             "category": "APPLICATION",
             "message": "There was a problem with an eBay internal system or process. Contact eBay developer support for assistance.",
             "parameters": [
                 {
                     "name": "code",
                     "value": "1042"
                 }
             ]
         }
     ]
 }

API works fine if credit card details are not in request. Could someone please help?

As per eBay Order API documentation, your request payload is good, but if you check the guest checkout samples they do not have the credit-card object in the request. They also mention that if you do not have credit card information in this request then you can call updatePaymentInfoGuest to add credit card information to checkout session.

Documentation Links :

The inputs are the buyer's email, name, and address and the item IDs and quantity of each item. You can have a maximum of four individual items of any quantity in a checkout session. Each item is associated with a unique line item. Optionally, you can include the buyer's payment information. If you don't include this information in this call, you can use the updatePaymentInfoGuest call to add this information to the checkout session.

As the guest checkout response doesn't have much information about the error, I would recommend you to try the below ....

  1. call guest checkout without credit-card information (buy/order/v1/guest_checkout_session/initiate)
  2. call update payment with cred-t-card information info using the checkout session id from above (buy/order/v1/guest_checkout_session/{checkoutSessionId}/update_payment_info)

  • Hi JRG, Its working fine when credit card information is not provided in request. So I think access token is correct. – Rini Sep 25 '17 at 17:07
  • Hi Rini, it seems like the checkout api response is not having any fruitful information so you should call checkout api without CC information and then later call updatePaymentInfo with CC information and checkoutSessionId from the checkout api call. This should solve your problem. I have updated my answer with all the details about both the apis and links to documentation that has samples. – JRG Sep 25 '17 at 17:40
  • @Rini - cool, will really appreciate if you can please accept the answer and vote up my answer :). – JRG Sep 27 '17 at 04:40
  • @JRG - I am facing same problem and I tried your method not to pass credit card info in guest checkout initiate. But I am still getting that "There was a problem with an eBay internal system or process. Contact eBay developer support for assistance." error. Can you hint me ? I can provide more details if you want. – Rushabh Dave Nov 16 '18 at 14:49
