Open a dispute against the shop
Pick a story. Exhibit takes a real sandbox card payment to Halden Ceramics, adds the tracking number, then has the card issuer file a chargeback through PayPal's sandbox. You get the case on your desk, as the seller, to argue and file.
- 1The buyer pays the shop with one of PayPal's test cards. POST /v2/checkout/orders
- 2The shop ships it and adds the tracking number. POST /v2/checkout/orders/{id}/track
- 3The card issuer files a chargeback. PayPal reviews it for five to eight minutes; you get one that is already with the seller. POST /v2/customer-support/process-chargeback
