Thanks!

Hi there,

Was this previously working or is the a new setup?

Is this using Auth.net?

Are you testing payments or live?

Hi there,

Authorizenet has a helpful tool that will let you lookup what the codes mean:

http://developer.authorize.net/tools/responsereasoncode/

Here is the result:

Response Reason Code: 205
Response Reason Text: This transaction has been declined.

Other Suggestions: This error code applies only to merchants on FDC Omaha. The value submitted in the merchant number field is invalid.

Some other searches show that this could be a configuration issue with the account setup.

You shared that this is a new account. Could you confirm with Authorizenet support that this account is approved for production / live mode?
