What additional troubleshooting steps can I take?

  • If the steps above do not fix the issue, first make sure your payment method is supported. monday.com accepts most major credit cards and PayPal; see this article for details.
  • If the transaction was blocked or flagged, ask your bank or card issuer to allow the charge. Then return to the failed invoice and select Resolve payment (and Retry payment if available).
  • You can also try a different payment method. Add a new card from the Resolve payment window or change it from Billing under Payment method.
