Reason codes are used to identify the cause of a payment decline. These codes help merchants and payment processors understand why a transaction was rejected and determine the appropriate next steps.
While these codes are primarily used for card payments, they may also apply to other payment methods, such as electronic funds transfers (EFT). Some declines may allow the transaction to be retried, while others indicate a permanent failure that requires alternative action.
The table below lists reason codes, their associated messages, and whether retrying the transaction is recommended.
Codes 10066 and 10067 are only applicable to Betting clients.
