There are a variety of errors that can occur when entering or updating your payment method, or when renewing or purchasing your subscription.
Important: There is nothing that our support team or billing specialists can do to resolve payment errors. They are all the result of either information being entered incorrectly, or the card issuer refusing to process the transaction. This must be resolved by you, and/or your card issuer.
If you have already contacted your card issuer and are still experiencing issues, please email support@arive.com
