Resolving Payment Failures: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you've been experiencing recurring payment failures during your credit addition process, here's what you need to do:

1. Verify Card Details:


   Ensure the accurate input of your card number, expiry date, and CVV/CVC/CSC during the payment process.

2. International Payments Check:

   Confirm whether your card allows international payments, as this could be a potential reason for the payment failure.

3. Account Compatibility:

   Check that your account supports e-commerce transactions and ensure that the set limits are appropriate for a seamless payment process.


Possible Reasons for Payment Failure: 

If the aforementioned conditions are met and you're still facing issues, consider the following potential reasons:

1. Unsupported Card:


   It's possible that the card you're using may not be supported for the transaction.

2. Insufficient Funds:

   Ensure that your account has sufficient funds to cover the intended payment amount.

3. Bank Declined Payment:

   The bank may have declined the card payment for security or other reasons.
