Description

From Gr4vy:

Gr4vy just released an updated (beta) Venmo connector to WMF's environment. This is a significant upgrade, offering new features like recurring payments and the ability to ingest billing details.
We've hit a small snag with testing the billing details feature. Venmo's sandbox environment has some restrictions that prevent us from testing it end-to-end.
To get this over the finish line, we need your help. Would one of you be able to activate the new connector in your production environment and process a single test payment? This will help us verify that the data is being captured correctly so we can finalize the feature.

AKanji-WMF moved this task from Triage to Sprint +1 on the Fundraising-Backlog board.

Gravy requires a test in production to finalise the work on this. According to the payment routing doc, we currently don't have any routing Gravy Venmo, so we should be able to run a silent test for this.

Update:

We are currently running the test with Gravy. While the donations were successful without requesting donor details on the payments form, Gravy is still unable to fetch the donor details from their Venmo account. Here's a sample transaction

The update on this is that Gravy has been able to fetch Donor Details for one time transactions but the last test for recurring transactions was unable to get the Donor's details. They have made some changes and we are due for another round of tests.
