Why is my payment failing on Holidu?
If your payment is failing, it might be for one of the following reasons:
1. Payment Authentication Issue
You must authorize the payment in your banking app or enter a code/TAN/PIN sent by your bank via text message or phone call.
2. Insufficient funds
Please ensure that your account has enough balance to cover the payment.
3. Withdrawal amount exceeded
Your bank may have set a daily, weekly, or monthly spending limit. Check your banking app or contact your bank for more details.
4. Payment method not supported
Please make sure you are using a valid payment method. We currently accept: Credit Card, PayPal, iDeal (The Netherlands), Klarna (for Austria, Germany, and The Netherlands) or Sofort.
5. Invalid or Declined Card Details – Common issues include:
- Incorrect CVC number or invalid CVC length.
- Invalid or expired card number.
- Blocked or restricted card (your bank may have declined the transaction for security reasons).
- Cancelled card (check with your bank to confirm its status)
6. Too many failed attempts
If you have made 5 or more unsuccessful payment attempts, further transactions may be temporarily blocked. Please wait 1-2 hours before trying again. If the issue persists, we recommend checking with your bank or using an alternative payment method.
