Why did my company balance top-up fail in My hub?

Topping up your company balance via credit card is usually quick and convenient—but sometimes errors can occur. Here’s what to do.

Common reasons for failed top-ups

Credit card payments may be declined due to issues with the card or restrictions set by your bank. Here are the most frequent causes:

  1. Insufficient funds on the card.
  2. Incorrect password entered during the 3D Secure (3DS) check.
  3. 3DS pop-up window blocked by your browser.
  4. Monthly limit for online payments has been exceeded.
  5. The bank does not allow international transactions.
  6. Anti-fraud rules imposed by the card-issuing bank.


✅ First step: Contact your bank to check for any restrictions.

If the error persists

After checking all the above and still getting an error, please contact [email protected] with the following:

  • Last 4 digits of the card used
  • Date and time of the failed top-up attempt
  • Screenshot of the error message with the browser console open
To open a dedicated browser console:



  1. Right-click anywhere on the screen

  2. Select “Inspect”

  3. Go to the “Console” tab

  4. Try the top-up again and take a clear screenshot

📸 See the example below. 

Other common error messages

1. “Pop-up window is blocked. Please, allow pop ups in your browser”

This means your browser is blocking the 3D Secure (3DS) window. Enable pop-ups in your browser settings and try again.
2. “The company already has an active invoice. Try again in 15 minutes”


This means the last failed attempt created a pending invoice. Wait at least 15 minutes before trying again.

⚠️ Repeated attempts before the cooldown ends can block all payment attempts until manually cleared by the admin.

Important note about card freezes

Sometimes banks or online stores don't charge money from your card immediately. They do it in two steps:


  • Pre-authorization (freezing the amount)


  • Capture (actual charge)

Before any top-up, make sure that your card hasn't got any frozen balance, because this money cannot be used twice.

Additional tip for debit card users

If you’re using a debit card, ensure your balance is above zero and covers the top-up amount. You can’t go into negative balance with a debit card.


If the error message states: "the bank does not approve the transaction. Kindly contact the bank", address the issue to your card issuing bank.
