I used my own card for testing
The error you’re encountering, “GENERIC_DECLINE”, indicates that the payment method used was declined by the card issuer. This could be due to a variety of reasons such as insufficient funds, the card being reported as lost or stolen, or the card issuer not recognizing the payment source. It’s recommended to ask the cardholder to contact their card issuer for more information.
