Your card will be deleted if you've had up to three failed transactions due to insufficient funds from the same platform. This is to avoid incurring unwanted charges. Additionally, if a merchant forcibly charges your card resulting in a negative balance, the card will also be disabled. This policy ensures that the user account remains free from further unintended complications.

How do you avoid card termination?

  • Please ensure your card is sufficiently funded for any payment, especially recurring payments.

  • To prevent charges on your card, delete/remove your card from the platforms it has been added to or cancel your subscription.

  • If your card transaction fails three (3) times due to insufficient funds, your card will be deleted.

  • If your card is frozen, you cannot complete transactions. Please fund and unfreeze your card.

  • Please note that once your card details are added to a platform, you can be force-charged regardless of whether it is funded or frozen.

    If you need further assistance, please get in touch with our support team via the in-app chat or email [email protected] Additionally, once a card is terminated, it cannot be reactivated, and the one-time card creation fee is non-refundable. You may create a new card in the Grey app and fund it to resume transactions.
