Review your billing information
Review all of the information exactly as required for your method of payment (e.g. Card number, postal code, country, state, CVC, PO numbers, etc). Please note, for PayPal users please re-verify your account details and payment information in your PayPal account.
Ensure that your card details, such as the card number, expiration date, and billing address, are accurate in your account to prevent errors.
Your bank/card provider could be automatically blocking the transaction
Please note, if you have any trouble processing the transaction or entering payment details, there are multiple reasons the credit card could become declined even if you have a sufficient balance (for instance, your bank could block the transaction if it suspects fraud - this can happen even if you previously had a successful payment). ScreenCloud is also a company based in London, England, and maybe blocked due to it being considered an international transaction.
Additionally, payment errors can also occur due to system conflicts, such as when the system attempts to process payments for outstanding invoices while invoicing for new subscriptions, leading to processing errors.
For additional information and as a resource for you, please read through this educational article on declined charges from ‘Stripe’, our payments processor: https://support.stripe.com/questions/why-was-a-customers-charge-declined
We also recommend reaching out directly to your bank to see why the transaction was declined.
Follow a step-by-step approach to troubleshooting, starting with verifying that the card is active and recognized by your bank. If needed, reach out to your bank or card issuer directly.
Use a different browser
If you're not seeing any errors, in addition to your payment method becoming verified by your bank and the information is confirmed to be valid, we recommend using a different web browser to see if the challenge persists. We recommend using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox as these are the best options to run ScreenCloud's website, though you can also try clearing your browser cache by visiting https://refreshyourcache.com/en/home/.
If you're encountering continual issues, consider updating your payment method. Navigate to the Billing section of your ScreenCloud account to attempt updating the payment information or adding a new card.
Contact ScreenCloud support
If the issue persists, please reach out to ScreenCloud support, and please ensure to send any screenshots, error messages, or clear descriptions of your challenge on the payment page along with your message.
