Troubleshooting Failed Authorizations and Payment Declines

To protect your security and privacy, your bank cannot provide us with information about why your payment was declined. Because of this, you most likely need to contact your bank directly to solve most payment issues.

We can help you:
  • Verify if you entered your payment information correctly on your order.
Contact your bank to resolve other payment issues even if:
  • You've successfully used the payment method on a previous order.
  • You have funds available in your bank or credit account to cover the order cost.
Here are steps you can take to resolve payment issues:

Contact your bank about payment security policies. Your bank may flag any unexpected activity on your account. This includes first time orders and high value purchases, regardless of the amount of funds available (or credit limit). Your bank may require your verbal authorization to proceed with a transaction.

Contact your bank about daily withdrawal or purchase limits. Most banks have limits on how much money can be charged or accessed in a single day. If you exceed this daily amount, your bank may block your account from any further activity regardless of available funds in the account. Your bank may require you to request a higher purchase limit to complete the transaction.

Verify the payment information entered on your order. Did your billing address change recently or did you get a new card with a new expiration date? If you used a payment method already on, you may simply need to update some of the information. If you entered a new payment method, make sure you entered the number and other information correctly. Visit the Update Billing Information section of your Account to update the payment information on an open order.

Submit an alternate payment method for your order. If you are unable to resolve the payment issue with your bank in a timely manner, you are always welcome to change the payment method on your order to another card. Visit the Update Billing Information section of your Account to update the payment information on an open order.
