The payment was declined by the card issuer during an Apple Tap to Pay (TTP) transaction with a request for the card's PIN. This code will be returned alongside CARD_DECLINED_VERIFICATION_REQUIRED
as a supplemental error, and will include an issuer-provided token in the details
field that is needed to initiate the PIN collection flow on the iOS device.
The expiration date for the payment card is invalid. For example, it indicates a date in the past.
The expiration year for the payment card is invalid. For example, it indicates a year in the past or contains invalid characters.
The expiration date for the payment card is invalid. For example, it contains invalid characters.
The entry method for the credit card (swipe, dip, tap) is not supported.
The payment was declined because there was a payment amount mismatch. The money amount Square was expecting does not match the amount provided.
Square received a decline without any additional information. If the payment information seems correct, the buyer can contact their issuer to ask for more information.
The card issuer declined the request because the postal code is invalid.
The currency associated with the payment is not valid for the provided funding source. For example, a gift card funded in USD cannot be used to process payments in GBP.
The Square account does not have the permissions to accept this payment. For example, Square may limit which merchants are allowed to receive gift card payments.
The card issuer has declined the transaction due to restrictions on where the card can be used. For example, a gift card is limited to a single merchant.
The Square account cannot take payments in the specified region. A Square account can take payments only from the region where the account was created.
The card issuer has determined the payment amount is either too high or too low. The API returns the error code mostly for credit cards (for example, the card reached the credit limit). However, sometimes the issuer bank can indicate the error for debit or prepaid cards (for example, card has insufficient funds).
The card issuer declined the request because the issuer requires voice authorization from the cardholder. The seller should ask the customer to contact the card issuing bank to authorize the payment.
The specified card number is invalid. For example, it is of incorrect length or is incorrectly formatted.
The card expiration date is either invalid or indicates that the card is expired.
The card is not supported either in the geographic region or by the merchant category code (MCC).
The card must be swiped, tapped, or dipped. Payments attempted by manually entering the card number are declined.
Square declined the request because the payment amount exceeded the processing limit for this merchant.
When a Gift Card is a payment source, you can allow taking a partial payment by adding the accept_partial_authorization
parameter in the request. However, taking such a partial payment does not work if your request also includes tip_money
, app_fee_money
, or both. Square declines such payments and returns the GIFT_CARD_AVAILABLE_AMOUNT
error. For more information, see CreatePayment errors (additional information).
