Payment not going through
Check card details
Make sure:

- Expiration date hasn't passed
- CVV/security code is right

Insufficient funds
Your card may not have enough available credit or balance.
Fix: Use a different card or add funds to your account.

Banks sometimes block online transactions for security.
Fix:

- Try again after speaking with your bank
- Use a different card
Try a different card
Some cards have restrictions on certain types of purchases.
Fix: Try a different credit or debit card.

Wrong card type
We accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Other card types may not work.
Charged incorrectly
Double charged
If you see two charges:
- Check if one is pending (it may disappear)
- Wait 24-48 hours for pending charges to clear
- If both are processed, contact support
Wrong amount
If the amount doesn't match your plan:
- Check for prorated charges (when upgrading mid-cycle)
- Check for credit purchases
- Review your invoice for breakdown
- Contact support if it doesn't make sense
Charged after canceling
If you canceled but still got charged:
- Verify you completed the cancellation
- Check the cancellation date - you're charged until then
- Contact support with your cancellation confirmation
Subscription issues
Can't upgrade
If the upgrade button doesn't work:
- Check you have a valid payment method
- Try refreshing the page
