My payment doesn’t go through

If the payment for a monthly payment fails, you will receive an email from us informing you about it. We will then try to bill the monthly payment for a few days before your subscription will be automatically cancelled. 

Try the following to solve the problem: 

1. Make sure the card you have registered is active and has enough available funds. 
2. Make sure that the card is open for online payments. 
3. Try a different payment method. You can change your payment method on Reikningurinn minn. Read more about updating your payment method here. 

We recommend you try the following tips: 

1. Make sure the card is a MasterCard or a Visa issued by an Icelandic bank. Due to studio rights you cannot use a card issued by a foreign bank. 
2. Make sure the card is open for online purchases. 
3. Try to add/update your card on a different device or a web browser. If you are using Wifi, restart your router or try a different connection, such as 4G on your mobile or tablet device. 

Note that for safety reasons when you add or update a payment card on your account, you need to verify your card with for example a verification app. If you are not sure which verification method you can use or if you have problems with the verification, we ask you to contact your bank.
