Got an error while paying? Double-check your card details and try again.

Only your bank or card issuer can tell you the exact reason. These are the most common ones:

  • The card number or expiration date is wrong.

  • There isn't enough money in the account.

  • Your bank blocks charges from other countries. Ask them to turn on international online payments.

  • Your bank's fraud rules flagged the charge.
