BEST PRACTICES
To ensure seamless transactions (and to avoid credit card declines):
Enter the customer's preferred email. AVOID entering the same email for multiple orders. This can trigger credit card declines.
EMAIL ADDRESS IS AN OPTIONAL FIELD. You can leave empty if you prefer, but do NOT enter the same email address for multiple orders. While this field is optional, Lovingly recommends including a valid customer email address to take advantage of the automatic post purchase confirmation emails that keep your customer informed and connected.
Ensure that the customer name matches the name on the payment credit card. If they don't match, this can also trigger credit card declines.
Double check that all the required credit card info is correct - the CVV, zip code, etc. Anything not matching will result in a credit card decline.
