Value Description
03

Invalid acceptor

This code is sent by the card issuer. This code is used in the following cases:

  • Invalid expiry date

  • Exceeded credit limit
  • Insufficient funds (etc.)
To find out the specific reason of the rejection, the buyer must contact his or her bank.
51 Insufficient balance or exceeded credit limit

To find out the specific reason of the rejection, the buyer must contact his or her bank.
54 Expiry date exceeded

This code is sent by the card issuer.

Some issuers return this code when the card is canceled before the expiry date, either by the cardholder or by the bank. There is no specific code for indicating that the card has been canceled.
56 Card absent from the file

60

The acceptor of the card must contact the acquirer

This code is sent by the card issuer. It refers to a configuration problem on authorization servers. It is used when the merchant ID does not correspond to the used sales channel (e.g.: an e-commerce transaction with a distant sale contract with manual entry of contract data).

Contact the customer service to resolve the problem.
81

Unsecured payment is not accepted by the issuer

This code is sent by the card issuer. After receiving this code, the payment gateway automatically makes a new payment attempt with 3D Secure authentication, when possible.
