Why was my credit card payment declined?

There are many reasons why a credit card payment could be declined, here are a few and some suggestions that may help fix it.

Incorrect Information

• Wrong credit card numbers
• Wrong expiration date
• Wrong v-code
• Wrong billing address
• Wrong phone number

The most common issues are generally simple errors in the information provided. Double check that your information is correct and accurate. Additionally, your billing address must match the billing address on your credit card and the shipping address must be an address that is registered as an authorized address with your credit card company.

Funding and Security

• Daily purchase limit
• insufficient funds
• Blocked due to security flag
• Suspicious purchasing geo-location

Computers can be an expensive and uncommon purchase so your credit card may have flagged it as suspicious and blocked the transaction for security purposes. It may also exceed your daily purchase limit which is set up for your own protection. Simply call your credit card's customer service and they can identify the purchase attempt and give you further insight into why the transaction may have been declined.
