5. Handling Failed Payment

Common Failure Reason

Reason	Solution
Receiver no PayPal	Email invite to register
Wrong email	Verify email via API before send
Receiver country blocked	Use alternative (Wise)
Amount exceeds limit	Split into multiple batch
Insufficient fund	Top-up PayPal balance
Receiver account limited	Receiver resolve dengan PayPal

Auto-Retry Failed Payment

1. Get payout batch detail via API
2. Filter failed transactions
3. Update CSV dengan corrected data
4. Re-upload batch

Best practice: separate batch buat retry, easier reconciliation.

6. Multi-Currency Strategy

Hold Multi-Currency Balance

• Hold USD buat international payout
• Hold EUR buat EU payout
• Hold IDR buat domestic payout
• Avoid 4% conversion per payment

Receiver Get Native Currency

• IDR receiver: get IDR (PayPal auto-convert from your USD)
• Receiver pays conversion fee, not you

Strategy buat Indonesia Business

1. Hold USD di PayPal Business
2. Payout USD buat international freelancer/affiliate
3. Payout IDR buat domestic (kalau punya IDR balance)
4. Convert strategis waktu kurs menguntungkan
