When you use Livble, we pay your monthly dues to your community upfront. You then repay Livble through scheduled installment payments, which are debited from your linked bank account.


💳 Can I Use a Debit or Credit Card?

No. Livble does not accept debit or credit cards.

To split your monthly dues, you must link a personal bank account through Plaid.

We recommend linking all bank accounts you’re comfortable with potentially being debited from. This helps:

  • Reduce the risk of failed payments due to insufficient funds

  • Provide a more complete picture of your financial activity for eligibility assessments

  • Allow backup debit attempts if needed

All repayments — including your first installment, remaining installments, the $10 fee, and any applicable fees — are processed via ACH (bank transfer).


🔒 Why Doesn’t Livble Accept Cards?

Livble currently supports bank-account (ACH) repayments only. Debit and credit cards aren’t supported because ACH helps us:

  • Confirm account ownership during sign-up and repayment (via Plaid)

  • Reduce fraud and unauthorized payment risk, especially around chargebacks and disputed card transactions

  • Keep repayment processing consistent across installment schedules

  • Avoid card-network constraints that can create repayment reversals, partial payments, or additional handling requirements

Because of this, card payments aren’t available right now — and Support can’t manually accept card payments either.


✅ How to Avoid Payment Issues

To prevent failed payments or returned payment fees:

  • Keep enough funds in your linked bank account

  • Make sure your bank account(s) stay connected

  • Remember ACH payments process on business days

If a payment is returned due to insufficient funds, a $25 returned payment fee may apply.


📌 Important

  • All Livble payments must come from a linked bank account.

  • Support cannot manually process card payments.

  • You’re responsible for ensuring funds are available at the time of debit.
