How to find the Link "Several customer credit card payments were declined"?

Thank you for reaching out about locating information on declined customer credit card payments in QuickBooks Online (QBO). I understand your frustration in not finding the familiar link on your dashboard to review failed or declined recurring customer payments. Let me guide you through the process of locating this crucial information.

 

The alert for declined customer credit card payments should appear in the widget dashboard. If you're unable to view it, let's proceed with some troubleshooting steps. Sometimes, accumulated data in a browser may affect its performance, leading to unexpected behavior in web applications. To rule out the possibility of a webpage issue, we recommend accessing your account through an incognito window. Use these keyboard shortcuts:

 

  • Safari: Shift + ⌘ + N
  • Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + N

 

If this works, I recommend clearing your browser's cache so the system will start fresh. If you encounter the same result, I suggest switching to a different supported browser.

 

Alternatively, you can locate your customer payment information and check its status by accessing the Merchant Service Center. Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to the Merchant Service Center.
  2. From the Activity & Reports menu, select Transactions.

  4. In the Status column, you'll see the current status of the payment.

Please note you should receive an automated email notification when a customer's credit card is declined during the billing process.
