We know a failed payment can be frustrating, and we want to make sure it gets resolved quickly. Here are the most common reasons a payment doesn't go through and exactly what to do about each one.

Common Reasons & How to Resolve Them

1. Insufficient Funds Check that your bank account or card has enough funds to cover the invoice amount. If your balance was insufficient during processing, adding funds and attempting the payment again should resolve the issue.

2. Bank-Side Restriction Some banks automatically flag transactions from unfamiliar companies and place a temporary hold. If this is the case, contact your bank directly and ask them to:

  • Confirm your account is active and in good standing.

  • Remove any block on transactions from Saltbox or our payment partner, Stripe.

You can share these Stripe Company IDs with your bank to authorize future debits:

  • 1800948598

  • 4270465600

3. Outdated Payment Details Log in to your Members Portal and go to Billing β†’ Payment Details to confirm your saved card or bank account is current and hasn't expired.

4. Try a Different Payment Method If the issue isn't resolved right away, don't worry β€” you can use an alternate card or bank account to cover the invoice in the meantime. Go to Billing β†’ Invoices, click Pay, and select or enter a different payment method.
