FAQs

I've tired to place an order but it's saying "Payment Failed". I have funds in my account so it should be working. What do I do?

There are a number of reasons why this could be happening. The most common are:

1. Incorrectly inputting the type of card it is (Eg. Clicking Visa when its actually a Visa Debit)

2. When verifying the 3D secure in your banking app, you need to make sure you return to our website after you've made the payment in order for it to process fully. 

If you've tried both of the above and it's still not working, you can return to the payment page and instead select the American Express Etc. button. In here, you can still enter your card details as normal and process your order this way. This is due to it using a different payment gateway that accepts all different types of cards.

If you are still having trouble after this, please email us at info@ellabonita.co.uk where I can help you out!
