My order transaction failed but the amount has been deducted from my bank account. What should I do?

My order transaction failed but the amount has been deducted from my bank account. What should I do?

Paysasa TeamUpdated 23 Apr 2026

If your order transaction failed but the amount has been deducted from your bank account, it can be concerning. Here's what you can do in such a situation:

  1. Check your bank statement: Verify the deduction by checking your bank statement or transaction history. Make sure that the deduction corresponds to the failed transaction.
  2. Contact customer support: Reach out to the customer support. Provide the  details of the failed transaction, including the order number, amount deducted, and any relevant information. They should be able to assist you and investigate the issue further.

It's important to act promptly in such situations to ensure a timely resolution. Keep any relevant documentation, such as transaction records and communication with the platform or bank, for reference during the resolution process.

Get paid by M-Pesa, cards and wallets, safely.
