If there is an issue with your card, it may be declined and your payment may not be processed.
Your bank has to approve the transaction request in order for your purchase to be completed.

The following list contains the top reasons why payments fail:

  • Incorrect Credit Card number or expiration date

  • Insufficient funds

  • Some banks may reject charges based on location criteria

  • Some banks may reject charges based on their own rules for fraud detection

  • Some banks use 3-D Secure that is not currently supported by our system

This is what you can do to resolve such issues:

  • Make sure that you have provided MarineTraffic with correct Credit Card details (Card number, expiration date etc). Click on the button below to check!

  • In order to resolve 3-D Secure issues, choose PayPal as your payment method and use it as your default payment method (you can use the same Credit Card).
