A payment failed or needs action

What to do when a subscription payment fails or requires additional authentication.

Core
  • Requires billing:manage

Symptom

A payment did not go through, or your bank requires an extra confirmation step.

Most likely causes

  • The card expired, was declined, or has insufficient funds.
  • The bank requires additional authentication for the charge.
  • The billing details on file are out of date.

How to confirm

Open billing settings. A failed or action-required payment is shown with the next step.

Resolution

  • Update the payment method in the customer portal.
  • Complete any authentication your bank requests.
  • Retry the payment from billing settings.

What Fajita records

Fajita follows the payment state and applies a grace period before restricting access. See Payment failures.

When to contact support

If the payment succeeds at your bank but Fajita still shows it as failed, contact billing support.
