Troubleshooting

Some common errors you may come across when setting up your account:

Authorize.net FDC Merchant ID or Terminal ID is incorrect

This error indicates there is an issue with your Authorize.net setup. Please report this error to the Authorize.net customer support.

(99) This transaction cannot be accepted

(13) The merchant login ID or password is invalid or the account is inactive

Regarding Authorize.net: API Login Id, Transaction Key, and MD5 Hash Value must be completely the same in your customer's Authorize.Net account and his Authorize.Net settings in the StoreFront Control Panel. Even one unnecessary space at the end of one value can cause the 99 error.
