Your credit card payment comes back as "Failed."
Typical failure reasons and what to do
| Reason | What to do |
|---|---|
| Insufficient balance / over the credit limit | Check with your card company, or switch to another card |
| Expired | Register a new card |
| Card number / security code typo | Remove the card and register it again |
| 3D Secure authentication failed | Approve authentication via your card company's SMS / app |
| Overseas payment block | Ask your card company to add ReceiptRoller to the allow list |
| Fraud detection (card company's judgment) | Contact your card company to approve it |
| Card suspended / frozen | Contact your card company |
Triage steps
- "Business account" → "Billing" → "Payment history," and open the record with a Failed status
- Check the error reason shown
- Take the corresponding action
- On the "Payment methods" screen, choose "Retry" or set a different card
If it stalls at 3D Secure authentication
- An SMS arrives from your card company; complete the identity verification
- Approve it in your card company's app (Rakuten e-NAVI, Vpass, etc.)
- Once authentication succeeds, the payment proceeds automatically (or retry it manually)
If it says "Declined by your card company's judgment"
All ReceiptRoller can see is the fact that "the card company declined it." Only the card company knows the specific reason.
- Call the contact number on the back of your card
- Tell them "please allow the payment to ReceiptRoller (operated by [company name])"
- Once allowed, retry from the ReceiptRoller side
For bank transfers
- Check the destination account (the one on the invoice)
- Make the sender name match the business account (it's identified by partial match)
- Transfer fees are borne by the business account
- Receipt is confirmed within 1 to 3 business days
What happens on repeated failures
- After 3 consecutive failures, a notification email is sent
- After 5 consecutive failures, the payment method's status becomes "Invalid"
- Register a new card, or switch to a different payment method
