There are several reasons why payments may be unsuccessful and we understand it can be annoying when they do.
Why did my payment fail?
The most common causes are insufficient funds, wrong payment details, or international payment blocks. Don't worry, you won't be charged for any unsuccessful payments.
How can I improve my chances of a successful payment?
- Make sure you enter the correct payment details
- Make sure your payment method has sufficient funds (including applicable fees and taxes set by your payment provider)
- Wait at least an hour between payment attempts
- If you're trying to make a purchase on an internet browser try a different browser and/or clear your cache and cookies
