> We've traced the slightly elevated decline rates back to payments infrastructure upgrades required by one of our payment processing partners. Patrons might see some payments declined while changes take effect through the payments ecosystem.
> Contact your card issuer to confirm the charge is valid and retry that card, or, if that does not work, try a different payment method
> We're deeply sorry for the inconvenience this causes creators and their patrons.
