Experiencing difficulties with payments on Optimalprint can happen for various reasons. This guide provides practical steps for resolving common payment-related issues.
Verify Card Details: Confirm that you have entered the correct debit or credit card information, including card type, cardholder name, card number, expiry date, and CVC/security number (found on the back of your card), along with the billing address.
Check Available Funds: Ensure that you have sufficient funds available in your account or credit limit to cover the transaction.
Try Different Browser: If you're still unable to place the order and you're confident that your account has adequate funds, the issue might be related to your internet browser. We recommend trying a different browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari.4. Use an Incognito/Private Browser: Sometimes browser cache or cookies can interfere with transactions. Opening an incognito or private browsing window may resolve the issue.
Switch Devices: If you're trying to complete the payment on a computer, switch to a mobile device, or vice versa, to see if the problem persists.
Wait and Retry: Temporary system interruptions may sometimes occur. Waiting a few hours before retrying might resolve the issue.
Clear Cache and Cookies: Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can sometimes resolve payment issues. Instructions on how to clear cache and cookies vary depending on the browser you're using, so refer to your browser's support documentation for guidance.
Contact Your Bank: If the problem persists after trying the above steps, we recommend contacting your bank. Payment declines can occur for various reasons, including daily withdrawal or purchase limits, or risk checks performed by your bank. Your bank can provide further insights into why the payment was declined and assist you in resolving the issue.
By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and resolve the declined payment issue. If you continue to experience difficulties, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team for further assistance.
Payment Interrupted
If your recently placed order shows "Payment interrupted" as the status, it means the order was not completed and you were not charged.
What does this status mean?
This typically happens when the payment process is stopped before completion—due to a declined card, network issue, or the window being closed too early.
If you encounter a payment issue and receive an error indicating that items are out of stock, here’s what to do:
Items marked out of stock cannot be checked out until restocked. As restocking depends on our printing partners’ availability, check back after 24 hours to see if the items are available again. Unfortunately, there is no set timeline for restocks.
