Payment required messages

What a payment error means and how to clear it.

A payment error means Worklittle received your request but cannot complete it until the billing side is sorted out. There is nothing to "add credit" for. Fix the card or the monthly limit.

The usual causes

| Cause | What you see | Fix |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Payment failed (`payment_failed`) | Chat shows a billing block with **Open Billing** | Update the card via **Manage payment method** on [Billing](https://worklittle.com/business/billing) (Stripe Customer Portal) |
| Monthly limit reached | Same billing block, different title | Raise or clear the cap under [Limits](https://worklittle.com/business/billing#limits), or wait for the new month |
| Card declined | Collection fails on Billing | Update the payment method in the Stripe Customer Portal |
| No payment method on file | Amount owed cannot be collected | Add a card on Billing before the next collection |

Clear it in three steps

1. Open Billing. Use Manage payment method if collection failed, or Limits if you hit a monthly cap. 2. Confirm you are in the right organization (Personal vs company). See Switch organizations. 3. Retry once. Do not retry in a tight loop while billing is still blocked.

Requests usually start working again within moments after the card or limit is fixed.

Stop it happening again

- Keep a valid card on file for each organization. See Billing overview. - Add a budget alert below your limit. See Spend limits. - Review the Usage dashboard after any change that increases traffic.

Still stuck

If billing looks healthy and the error continues, check Service status, then email [support@worklittle.com](mailto:support@worklittle.com) with the time the error happened.
