    Hi, make sure to use Canadian valid card validate it's info. If the billing address differ from the one set with the financial institution that could also happen.

    If it still doesn't work you can contact Fizz by chat.

    Payment systems often validate a new payment method you add by placing a hold for a small amount onto the card. A payment initially does the same thing, only to later be settled with your credit card company. A hold, for adding a new card, will never get settled and just expire after a few days.

    But since the initial step, placing a hold on the card, is the same, it can get declined just as much as a payment is.

    The fix is to make sure, everything about the card is valid just as if you were in fact attempting a payment. @Use_code_VGTIB gave you most of the hints, also make sure that your card has funds available.
