When your deposit or withdrawal is declined, the screen shows a generic error with no reason, and the most common cause is a hidden limit on your payment method or account tier.
Payment Declined: Limits on Deposits and Withdrawals
Your transaction fails at the cashier, and the error does not say whether the limit applies to the amount, the method, or the day.
- Daily or weekly payment caps
- Minimum or maximum amount per transaction
- Method-specific restrictions
- Pending prior transactions
- Insufficient funds on the card or e-wallet
- Check the exact amount you entered against the balance you intend to use.
- Log out and log back in to refresh your account status.
- Try a smaller amount within the typical range for your method.
- Choose a different payment method if the first one fails.
- Clear your browser cache and cookies.
- Disable any VPN or proxy that might trigger a security block.
- Ensure your card or e-wallet has enough funds for the total plus any fees.
- Wait a few minutes and retry the same transaction.
- Check if the withdrawal is pending from an earlier request.
- Confirm that your payment method is not expired.
- Verify that your name matches the account registration exactly.
- Use the same method for withdrawal as you used for deposit.
- Contact your bank or payment provider to see if they blocked the transaction.
- Try the transaction from a different browser.
- Contact support if the error persists after all steps, and mention the time and amount.
Support will review your account limits after you have tried these steps.
