customer cannot make payment with amex

There are several factors that lead to an AMEX card being declined during transactions, Philip. Let's explore these reasons in detail and provide more structured solutions.

 

First off, ensure that the customer verifies their details are accurate when making a payment via AMEX, as incorrect information is often a common reason why transactions get rejected.

 

Once the details are verified and correct, but the issue continues, I suggest you let them reach out to AMEX directly. They can provide specific reasons for the transaction denial based on the account and transaction details.

 

If all the recommended steps have been checked and there are still no identified issues with AMEX, let your customer attempt to make the payment by using the incognito mode. This can help eliminate problems caused by cookies or caching that might interfere with the transaction process. They can follow these keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P

 

However, if the issue persists even after trying these solutions, I encourage reaching out to our Live Support team for further investigation into the matter.

1. Navigate to the Help icon.

2. Click the Search tab, then Contact Us.
