Why was my credit card declined during checkout?

There are several reasons why your credit card payment may not have been processed when checking out on Glass Commerce. Check each of these issues and how to solve them:

  • Update the payment information for your order.
  • Authorize the transaction with your bank - Check that you're within your daily withdrawal limit. 
  • Register your prepaid credit card.
  • Use a different payment method If your card still isn't approved after trying these steps, please contact your bank or credit card provider for further assistance.

Is my payment information up to date? 

If you have any Glass Commerce account, you may have saved your information, and it may be out of date. 

Check: 

  • Did your billing address change recently? 
  • Did you get a new card with a new expiration date? 
  • If you’re using your credit card for the first time, make sure you entered your card information correctly.

Has my bank authorized this purchase?

Your bank may flag any unexpected activity on your account. This includes first-time orders and high-value purchases, regardless of the amount of funds or credit limit available. Your bank may require your verbal authorization to proceed with a transaction.

Am I within my daily withdrawal or purchase limit?

Most banks have limits on how much money can be charged or accessed in a single day. If you reach this limit, your bank may block your account from any further activity regardless of available funds in the account. Your bank may require you to request a higher purchase limit to complete the transaction.

Should I use a different payment method for my order? 

If you are unable to resolve the payment issue with your bank in a timely manner, we recommend trying a different credit card or a different payment method.

What is an acceptable tax exemption form?

To process your tax-exempt purchase, we need you to provide a valid form of exemption documentation for the state to which the order will be delivered. Many states have their own certificate which you can find online. Additionally, some states allow the use of a "Multi-Jurisdiction Form" from the Multistate Tax Commission or a "Streamline Sales Tax Form" from Streamlined Sales Tax.

How do I know if my purchase should be tax-exempt in my state?

If you believe that the item you're purchasing should be exempt from tax in your state, let us know by Contacting Support. Commerce, Commerce sellers, and local tax authorities all have a role in ensuring taxes are collected correctly.

Why am I being charged state sales tax on my order?

Many US states recently enacted laws that require online marketplaces like Commerce to collect sales tax on eligible purchases. Purchases that require us to charge sales tax differ between states. We’re required to charge sales tax if the state you’re in mandates it, often no matter where the seller is located.

Why is sales tax charged on some items and not others?

The tax applies based on the type of item and how it's categorized. Depending on your state, some types of items are taxed and others are not. If you believe that the item you’re buying shouldn’t be taxed in your state, let us know by Contacting Support.
