Description

The payment failed because the transaction amount is below the minimum threshold set by the payment gateway, processor, or card issuer. Some payment methods do not support very low-value or micro-transactions.

Recommended Customer Message

Your payment could not be processed because the amount is below the minimum allowed. Please try a higher amount or use a different payment method.

Root Cause

• Minimum amount enforcement: The payment gateway or issuer sets a minimum charge amount that was not met.
• Micro-transaction restrictions: Some cards or payment processors do not support very low-value transactions.
• Configuration limits: Merchant account settings at the gateway may enforce a minimum transaction value.

Troubleshooting and Solutions

• Ask the customer to use an alternative payment method that allows small transactions, if available.
• Review your minimum amount configurations at the gateway if customers commonly face this issue.
