REMINDER: ACTION MAY BE REQUIRED: Payflow service upgrades for merchants


We’re contacting our merchants with a reminder about some important information in response to an industry-wide security upgrade which is not unique to PayPal. This change involves upgrading Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates for payflowpro.paypal.com to the SHA-256 hashing algorithm in October 2015.

Because these changes are technical in nature, we advise that you consult with your partner, website vendor, or individuals responsible for your Payflow integration. They will be able to identify what, if any, changes are needed. If you do not have a technology team, we recommend you find one, and we can work with them to ensure you continue to process payments through your current integration with Payflow.

Full technical details can be found in our Merchant Security System Upgrade Guide. In addition, our 2015 SSL Certificate Change microsite contains a schedule of our service upgrade plan.

Questions can be directed to our Merchant Technical Services team on our Technical Support website. Click here for more information.

Thanks for your patience as we continue to improve our services.

How will this affect the HikaShop Paypal payment plugin?
