FAQs

Q: When making a payment I get this error "INVALID_REQUEST_ERROR code EXPECTED_INTEGER", what to do?

A: This error means that amount used for transaction is set to zero, which isn’t a valid amount in Square payment system. The zero amount might happen when the “Sandbox” mode in Square payment method settings is enabled and “Test amount” option isn’t set. Please note that the Sandbox should only be used for testing purposes and when you are done with it you need to switch “Environment” option to “Production”.
