Why did my scheduled payment fail or get cancelled?

What happens when a scheduled payment does not go through, and how to avoid it.

What happens when a payment fails

If a scheduled payment fails, we try it again. If it still does not go through, the schedule is cancelled, and no further payments are made from it.

Common reasons

  • Your wallet did not have enough money on the due date.

  • The phone number, meter number or smartcard number is no longer valid.

  • The service provider was temporarily unavailable.

How to avoid it

  • Fund your wallet before the due date.

  • Check that the details on your schedule are still correct.

Payments on the 29th, 30th or 31st

Monthly schedules set for these dates still go through in shorter months.

What to do next

Fund your wallet if needed, then create a new schedule in Scheduled Payments. If you were charged but did not receive the service, open the transaction in your history and tap Report Issue, or chat with us in the app from 7am to 9pm daily.
