More questions about the card

Which email arrives before the card expires?

TEISENDA sends “The card for … expires – valid until the end of …” once per card and expiry date, within the preceding 30 days. It is sent only for an active subscription that TEISENDA would charge afterwards, to the invoice email address in billing details, using the stored invoice language. Without billing details, none is sent.

What happens after a failed charge

After a failed monthly charge, your subscription is past due. The payment has failed on billing and hosting pages gives its end date if payment does not arrive.

As Owner or Administrator, you can change the card or complete a pending bank confirmation there. Other members see Owners and Administrators of this Space can change the payment method..

Days count from the start of the billing month whose charge failed:

DayWhat happens
0The charge fails.
7A reminder states the subscription's end date.
11The final reminder is sent.
from 14TEISENDA ends the subscription due to non-payment: never earlier than 3 days after the final reminder, and never without it.

Good to know

  • Everything remains online until it ends, and Max still applies.
  • If a charge succeeds or TEISENDA collects the amount using a new card, the subscription is active again and these consequences no longer apply.
  • While past due, you cannot change the commitment, buy or remove packages, or delete the Space.
  • If your bank awaits confirmation, confirm payment or save another card before the subscription ends.
  • If the subscription ends due to non-payment, TEISENDA pauses all the Space's websites: What happens when a subscription ends.

More questions about failed charges

Which emails do I receive after a failed charge?

TEISENDA sends them to the invoice email address in billing details, using the stored invoice language. Without billing details, none is sent. Only the email for the current stage is sent:

  • “Payment for … failed”: days 0 to 6; if the bank awaits your confirmation, “Please confirm payment for …” instead.
  • “Payment pending: … ends on …”: days 7 to 10.
  • “Final reminder: … ends on …”: from day 11.
  • “Payment for … received”: the subscription is active again.
  • “… has ended, your websites are going offline”: the subscription ended due to non-payment.

Confirm a payment with your bank

If your bank holds a charge until you confirm it, complete confirmation without re-entering the card.

Note

You have Owner or Administrator in the Space.

The subscription is past due and the payment provider reported that the charge awaits your bank's confirmation.

    In The payment has failed, click Confirm payment. Observe the payment deadline stated there: the pending bank confirmation is not retried automatically.

  2. Confirm with the bank

    Click Confirm with your bank and confirm in your bank's window. The dialog then shows Payment confirmed or, while payment is pending, Confirmation is being processed.
