The customer getting error description ' Fail ( Card issuing bank does honor the transaction)' returned by Payhalal, what does it mean?

Kindly Contact your credit card issuer bank to check whether the card can be used for online purchases


There are a few main reasons that a do not honor code are fired, some offering a bit more clarity than others:

  • The customer has a hold on their card.

  • The customer has multiple denied payments on their card in a row, so it has been locked until the customer contacts the bank.

  • You are operating in a different country than the customer’s bank.

  • This transaction was caught in the issuing bank’s anti-fraud system for any reason. This could be an unusually large purchase or a purchase placed with a combination of odd factors (late at night, multiple orders within close proximity, etc.).

  • The customer could simply not have enough funds.
