Why is my account blocked?

 

A blocked account usually means a recent renewal or charge didn’t go through. You can check the reason and fix it right on monday.com. If a failed payment isn’t resolved within 14 days, the account becomes blocked until payment is completed. As soon as the payment succeeds, access returns automatically.

 

Check why your account is blocked

When you sign in, you’ll see a Your account is blocked window. Select Resolve payment to open the details.

In Resolve payment, you’ll see what happened, the amount due, and the actions you can take.

 

Retry the payment

If the issue looks temporary (for example, insufficient funds), select Retry payment to try the current card again.

When the payment goes through, the invoice changes to Paid, any renewal banner disappears, and your account unlocks.

Note: Retry payment doesn’t show for every situation. For expired or restricted cards, or permanent bank declines, use Update payment method.

 

Update your payment method

From Resolve payment, select Update payment method to add a new card.

Then choose Update and retry payment to process the charge right away. You’ll see a confirmation when your account is active again.

If the payment still doesn’t go through

  • Your bank or card issuer may still be blocking the transaction.
  • You may have reached the manual retry limit.
  • There could be a regional restriction or verification hold.

Ask your bank to allow the charge, then return to Resolve payment to try again. If it still doesn’t work, select Contact support from the blocked screen:
