Steps to Troubleshoot Payment Issues
Payment Declined or Failed
- Double-check payment details (card number, expiry date, CVC) for accuracy.
- Contact your bank or card issuer to rule out blocked payments or insufficient funds.
- Check if the payment gateway is operational.
- Confirm correct ticket pricing and fees when setting up the event.
- Review any discounts or promotional codes applied.
- If needed, examine the order details for unexpected charges.
Payment Not Processed After Purchase
- Check internet stability during the transaction.
- Look for confirmation emails; if none, the payment may have failed.
- Ask the attendee to try the payment again if no confirmation was received.
Steps to Troubleshoot Refund Issues
Refund Not Processed
- Verify that the refund request was made within the allowed time.
- Ensure the original payment method can accept refunds.
- Check with your payment provider, as refunds may take several business days.
- Confirm the requested refund amount matches what was paid.
- Check if any fees were withheld from the refund.
- Ensure the correct ticket details are chosen for the refund.
- Make sure the refund was properly initiated in the payment dashboard.
- Advise attendees to check their bank for pending refunds.
- If Eventy shows the refund as processed but the attendee hasn’t received it, contact support.
- Refunds can take 5–10 business days; check for delays with your payment provider.
- Investigate any issues with your account settings that might be causing delays.
By following these steps, you can resolve payment and refund issues efficiently, ensuring a positive experience for all involved.
