¶ Overview
When you change your credit card details on InstaCode Live, the actions required depend on whether you are changing the credit card before it expires of if an InstaCode Live billing has failed because of an expired credit card.
For a card that has not failed, the only action required is to enter the new card details.
For a card that has failed, an additional step is required to renew your subscription. This is because InstaCode Live aggressively retry your card once it has had a number of failure attempts.
WH Software cannot make changes for you
You must log into InstaCode Live to make changes or renew the subscription. It is not possible for WH Software to do this for you.
There are numerous reasons why a credit card billing may not be successful. Here are some of those reasons:
Credit card failure reasons
a. The card has expired.
b. There was insufficient funds available on the card at the time when billing was attempted.
c. The card has been blocked by your bank because the bank suspected fraudulent transactions.
d. The card has not been enabled for international transactions, or international transactions have been turned off for your card since you first started using InstaCode Live.
e. A bank outage or processing error.
International transactions
Check with your bank if necessary to ensure that international billing is permitted on your card.
