Before you start

  • You know which invoice or payment failed.

What this usually means

The card details are wrong, the card was declined, or the payment setup is incomplete.

Fastest fix first

  1. 1

    Retry with the exact card details

    Have the customer check the card number, expiration, and security code.

  2. 2

    Confirm Stripe is connected

    Make sure your payment setup is still active in Zentive.

  3. 3

    Capture the exact error

    If the payment fails again, save the exact message shown before contacting support.
