What happens when a payment fails?

What to do when payment fails

Written by Thijs Morlion

If payment fails for one or more passes, Port Pass shows a warning and directs you to Billing & Invoicing to resolve the unpaid invoice.

Understand the payment statuses

In Port Pass, you may see one of these statuses for a pass:

  • Pending payment means the pass has been bought, but Port Pass is still waiting for payment confirmation.

  • Payment failed means the payment did not succeed and action is needed.

Resolve the unpaid invoice

  1. In Port Pass, click Billing & Invoicing.

  2. In the billing portal, open Invoice history.

  3. Open the unpaid invoice.

  4. Retry the payment from there.

If the redirect to the billing portal does not work, check your popup or redirect blockers and try again.

If payment still fails, check whether your payment method is still valid. Port Pass already prompts users to check their payment method when a payment fails. As a last resort, you can also contact support via the yellow messenger in the bottom left of the portal.

After successful payment, the pass moves forward in the activation flow and the passholder receives an invitation to activate their pass.
