Card declined at checkout

Resolve payment failures and complete your order.

If payment fails at checkout, the order is not complete and no ticket is issued.

Common causes

  • Insufficient funds or daily card limit
  • Bank blocking first-time charges to new merchants
  • Wrong billing ZIP or CVC
  • Prepaid cards not supported for some events

What to do

  1. Try a different card or contact your bank.
  2. Refresh the page and checkout again — do not submit many times rapidly.
  3. For bank transfer events, follow the offline instructions instead.
