Occasionally, a payment may fail for various reasons depending on the payment method used.
Common Reasons for Payment Failure
Credit Card Payments:
-
Insufficient credit limit
-
Transaction blocked by the card-issuing bank (especially for first-time TUIO payments)
Bank Account Payments:
-
Incorrect banking information
-
NSF (non-sufficient funds)
-
Bank blocked the transaction
-
Payment returned after initial processing (status will show as Returned)
Reprocess the Payment
For Credit Card Payments:
You can retry immediately—there is no risk of NSF fees.
For Bank Account Payments:
First, review the transaction details to understand the reason for failure. If the issue is NSF, contact the parent before retrying, as repeating the charge without sufficient funds will result in another failure.
