Solutions for Payment Errors During the KETA Korea Application Process
KETA Korea applications require an online payment to be successfully submitted.
However, some applicants encounter payment errors that prevent them from completing the process.
If you’re facing payment issues, here are common causes and solutions to help resolve them.
1. Insufficient Funds or Card Limit Issues
A declined payment can occur if there are not enough funds in the account or if the transaction exceeds the card’s daily limit.
✔ How to Fix It: Check your account balance and ensure that your card has sufficient funds. If you have a spending limit, contact your bank to temporarily increase it if necessary.
2. International Transaction Restrictions
Some banks block international payments for security reasons, especially if the card has never been used for overseas transactions.
✔ How to Fix It: Contact your bank and confirm that your card is authorized for international transactions. You may need to enable foreign purchases before retrying.
3. Card Type Not Accepted
KETA Korea only accepts specific types of credit and debit cards, such as Visa, MasterCard, JCB, and AMEX. Some local or prepaid cards may not work.
✔ How to Fix It: Use a globally accepted card. If your card is not supported, try using another card or ask a family member to assist with the payment.
4. Website or Server Issues
Technical problems with the payment gateway or internet connection interruptions can sometimes prevent successful transactions.
✔ How to Fix It: Refresh the page and try again after a few minutes. If the issue persists, try applying using a different browser or device.
5. Incorrect Billing Information
Errors in entering card details, such as the card number, expiration date, CVV, or billing address, can result in payment failure.
✔ How to Fix It: Double-check all entered details and ensure they match the information registered with your bank.
