Payments cannot happen, fail with error

Postby LazyLand » September 8th, 2015, 12:31 pm

I just completed my implementation of Payments in the game, and tested it twice and it worked. But since then, whenever I try to make a payment (I click on the Buy Credits button in my game), I get Yahoo's "buy" dialog, which presents me with the different payment methods. When I choose any payment method (e.g. PayPal) and click on "Pay Now", I get this error message in a dialog box:

Error
We're sorry, your purchase could not be completed. You will not be charged for this transaction. Please try again later or contact us for assistance at Billing

Is there something wrong with Yahoo Payments at the moment?

The browser's console, and my server logs don't show anything when the error occurs.

The problem has been solved, without me doing anything about it.

The screen you are seeing is coming from our payment partner, and the most likely issue is that you somehow triggered a fraud rule. They recently tightened the rules a bit, and we're working with them to find the right balance again.
