    Error code 10486 is returned when a buyer’s Express Checkout payment fails due to a bad funding source; for example, the transaction exceeds the buyers card limit.

    If you receive this error code during a DoExpressCheckoutPayment or a DoAuthorization call, you can redirect your buyer to the PayPal page to select an alternate funding source or add a new funding source. Redirecting the buyer back to PayPal to select a different funding source eliminates the need to perform another SetExpressCheckout call that reinitiates the entire transaction flow, and also gives the buyer information on how to complete the transaction (instead of getting stuck in an endless checkout loop).

    Please be aware that the initial card failure was denied by the card-issuing bank. If the customer feels this was received in error, please ask them to contact their bank to resolve the issue.

    Hi,

    Exactly the same happened with me. How can I redirect the buyer to the PayPal page to select an alternate funding source or add a new funding source?

    Best Regards,
    George
