Contact your financial institution
If you are still seeing this error after updating your payment method, you'll need to reach out to your financial institution. Here are some questions you can ask to help determine why we are unable to process your payment:
Are there enough available funds to cover the charge from KitchenAttendant?
For credit and debit cards, is the card still valid, or has the financial institution recently issued a replacement?
For credit and debit cards, can the card be used for recurring billing?
Does the card or account support e-commerce transactions?
Was the transaction processed as an international charge? Does your account support this?
Was the transaction declined for any security reasons?
Does your financial institution see the transaction attempt from KitchenAttendant? Can they explain why it was declined?
