This payment error message means your payment method has been declined by your bank or card issuer. You need to contact your bank or card issuer for more information to unblock the card. If your payment method is linked to PayPal, please reach out to your bank or card issuer before contacting PayPal.
​
After you've contacted your bank, try subscribing once more but do double check all of your card information and billing details to ensure they are correct before trying again. If you have a declined payment for a recurring subscription, you can update your payment method to reinitiate a payment attempt via the Splice Billing Page.
