PayPal and pre 2012-13 QuickBooks

Legacy KB ID: 4451

Question

Can PayPal be used in pre-2012-13 versions of QuickBooks?

Answer

PayPal has formally taken over the management of the QuickBooks Credit Card Payments in QuickBooks 2012-13 – previously they had been the carrier.

There are some changes to the way Credit Card Payments and service billings, are processed. 

A key change is a CVV field on the Process Credit Card Payment screen.

If the processing financial institution requires a CVV, then the credit card transaction will not proceed without one.  Pre 2012-13 QuickBooks have no provision for a CVV field. 

At the time of writing we are aware of only the Commonwealth Bank requiring the CVV.  We understand that other financial institutions will in due course require the CVV number. 

 

You will not be able to process a credit card transaction in a pre 2012-13 QuickBooks if a CVV is required. 

 

Workaround

Upgrade to QuickBooks 2012-13.
