Marvel Snap’s recent full release on PC has shot the game’s popularity to new heights. The mobile and Windows (early access) versions were released back in 2022, and in August 2023, it finally escaped early access and landed on the PC market. Ever since the release of the early access version, players have been more and more excited to play the game, but with the official release, the excitement was greater than ever. However, the in-game experience wasn’t as smooth as many had hoped for. There are several bugs in the game. Well, in this guide, we will discuss the payment failed issue in Marvel Snap that many are encountering. If you are dealing with the same problem, consider reading until the end.
As of now, this issue isn’t limited to only PC or mobile platforms. While there are other bugs too, like the not-launching error, which is also equally annoying, this bug needs immediate fixing as players are unable to get their desired items in the game. That said, here are some workarounds for you to try.
Marvel Snap Payment Failed Issue: Is there any fix yet
Currently, we have a few potential workarounds to fix this issue. But since they are not official fixes, there is no guarantee they will work. However, in the absence of an official fix, these are your best shots at fixing the issue. With that out of the way, let’s get right into it.
Restart the Game
As always, the most general fix of the century is restarting. By doing this, you will refresh your main game client. Let’s say the payment was successfully processed, but somehow the game didn’t register the packet request that the server sent to your specific account. In other words, the server has updated your account with the bundle or whatever you bought. But the client didn’t. To fix that, simply close the game and reopen it. It fetches the fresh data from the server and, in time, fixes the issue. Also, this will work on all platforms, not just Android or iOS.
Double-check your payment method
It’s also possible that your bank has blocked your account. Or there is something wrong in place, like a wrong PIN or password, that has made the payment request invalid. To know if it’s true or not, simply go to your respective bank’s website and validate your latest transactions. If the amount has been deducted, then restart your game like we just said earlier. If the payment request was somehow rejected, then try again with the correct payment method.
Use the primary Google account
Most people forget that they have one or more Google accounts and mistakenly make payments from the secondary account. So, make sure to use your primary account to make the payment. To do so, open Google Play Games and, from settings, change the game account from the top option to the appropriate one. So, make sure to use the main account and retry the payment.
Ensure that the details are correct
In some rare cases, your account may have less money than the payment you are making. Also, as we discussed in an earlier workaround, the card details may have some errors in them. So just to be sure, check all the details of your card and verify if they match the real number or not. Also, while buying any bundle with gold, make sure that you have a sufficient amount; otherwise, even that might cause a similar issue.
Use the alternate store
Fortunately, Nuverse has an alternate store for purchasing bundles of Marvel Snap. There, you can buy everything that you can see in the in-game store. Simply verify your in-game ID, select the item you want to purchase, make the payment, and the purchased item will reflect in your in-game account. To visit the alternate store, click here.
