Coupons and PayPal EC

I have a problem with coupon and PayPal EC.

total: 90.00 eur
VAT 20%: 0.20 eur
Coupon: ecrfwerfq5f2018ae10 : -5.00 eur
Group discount 98%: -83.30 eur
Shipping (VAT inclusive): 1.20 eur

Total: 2.90 eur (correct)

The problem is that i've choosen PayPal EC as payment method, but the order has been closed as payed with coupon !!!!

Any suggestion?

Re: Coupons and PayPal EC

Maybe that because most payment was covered by the Coupon (5EUR) and only 2.90EUR was paid with Paypal? You can try it again with a 1EUR Coupon and 99.99% group discount and a rest payment of more than 1EUR?

BTW: You pricing structure seems bit strange anyway.

Re: Coupons and PayPal EC

No, 2.90 was unpaid, paypal method of payment has not been used (no redirection to paypal.com).
How is it possible?

Re: Coupons and PayPal EC

I think to have understood what the problem is.

I can replicate the problem.

I make an example for you.

Example 1 - Low order amount without COUPON

total: 90.00 eur
VAT 20%: 0.20 eur
Group discount 98%: -88.20 eur
Shipping (VAT inclusive): 1.20 eur

Total: 3.00 eur

Action: PAYMENT with PAYPAL EC -> success -> redirect to PAYPAL
So what happens now:

  • 3.00 payed through PayPal
  • method of payment displayed: PayPal

Example 2 - Low order amount with COUPON

total: 90.00 eur
Coupon: ecrfwerfq5f2018ae10 : -5.00 eur
Group discount 98%: -83.30 eur
Shipping (VAT inclusive): 1.20 eur

Total: 2.90 eur (correct)

Action: PAYMENT with PAYPAL EC -> error -> not redirect to PAYPAL
So what happens now:

  • 2.90 is not payed anymore
  • method of payment displayed: Gift/Coupon

What is the problem?

I think that in the second case, ZenCart do the following:

  • 90*0.02 (- 98% discount)
  • 1.8 + 1.2 (shipping costs added)
  • 3.0 - 5.0 (coupon is used).
    total = -2.0
    So paypal is skipped and gift/coupon is choosed as method of payment, but it's not correct!!!!

What do you think about?
How can i solve this?
