Your bank or card issuer may have a block to prevent automated International transactions, which they can lift upon request. Once resolved, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochen.com\/docs\/documentation\/how-to-process-an-unpaid-or-overdue-invoice\/\">process the invoice<\/a> via your customer account.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Secure Customer Authentication (SCA\/3DS) rules<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your bank or card issuer may have new SCA (or 3DS) rules that prevent the charge. This is especially likely if your bank is in the UK or EU. If you think secure authentication issues may be causing the problem, the best thing to do is to re-enter your credit card information. Doing so will re-authenticate the card to satisfy your bank&#8217;s requirements. Even if the card on file is not expired and has no other issues, it&#8217;s good to re-enter it if you think the problem may be SCA-related. Please open a billing support ticket once you&#8217;ve updated your card.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Card not present<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You or your bank may restrict transactions without the physical card being present.\u00a0 If you believe this may be causing the issue, please phone your bank to let them know that you approve the charge attempts. Once they&#8217;ve confirmed that they&#8217;ll allow the charge, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochen.com\/docs\/documentation\/how-to-process-an-unpaid-or-overdue-invoice\/\">process the invoice<\/a> via your customer account.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Mismatch of contact information<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our system uses your primary contact information when transmitting payment and charge details.

Once everything matches, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochen.com\/docs\/documentation\/how-to-process-an-unpaid-or-overdue-invoice\/\">process the invoice<\/a> via your customer account.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>High fraud alert<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are certain times when online spending is more frequent than others. This increases the chance of fraudulent credit card use, which, in turn, can heighten bank security measures. Your bank may simply take precautions to keep your account safe from fraud while unintentionally blocking legitimate charge requests (like your Rochen hosting fees).\u00a0 Once they&#8217;ve resolved this, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochen.com\/docs\/documentation\/how-to-process-an-unpaid-or-overdue-invoice\/\">process the invoice<\/a> via your customer account.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Expired card<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our system cannot process an invoice using expired card details.
