- Identity verification for online shopping may be required.

If you are not signed up for LINE Pay:

1. Select LINE Pay at checkout.

2. Register a phone number to your LINE account if you have not done so.

Note: You cannot make payments unless you have a phone number registered to your LINE account.

3. Enter your credit card details.

If an online payment with LINE Pay fails, it's possible:

• The payment failed for security reasons.

We have various security measures in place as part of our effort to ensure that LINE Pay can be used safely. For this reason, a payment may fail due to your environment at the time of payment.

If you're unable to make a payment immediately, you may be successful after some time has passed; however, if you are in a hurry, please consider using a payment method other than LINE Pay.

• You're using an old version of the LINE or LINE Pay app.

Please update the app to the latest version.

• The payment window expired.

Payments need to be completed within 5 or 20 minutes after starting the payment process. If you exceed this time frame, please start the process again from the beginning.

• You're not using a standard browser.

Try making a payment using your smartphone's default browser (e.g. Safari) or the Chrome browser.

• You didn't select Agree on the payment screen.

• You closed the screen in the middle of making a payment.

If you close the screen while you're making a payment, the transaction will fail. In this case, return to the payment screen and select Continue.

Debit Payments are subtracted immediately from your bank account linked to LINE Pay.

You can make debit payments if the Bank Account option appears on the payment screen.

If you want to change the bank account you use for making debit payments, you can do so by selecting Change from the payment screen.

Important:

- Accepted bank accounts vary by merchant.

- If the Bank Account option doesn't appear on the payment screen, you will need to register a bank account by selecting Add.

- Due to enhanced security, you may be asked to upload documents for identity verification when linking a bank.

If your balance doesn't appear on the payment screen, it means you linked a bank account that cannot be used for that merchant. Please try again after adding a different bank account.

If you want to receive a refund for a payment that failed due to a bank’s delayed response, please contact us Customer Care.

The pre-approved payment feature lets you make payments automatically, so you don't have to verify your LINE Pay passcode each time you use a vending machine or make regular payments at an online merchant.

Note: When using this feature at a participating merchant for the first time, you need to accept the terms of agreement.

You can set your payment method the first time you make a pre-approved payment at a merchant. Depending on which methods the merchant offers, you can choose to use:

• Your balance.

• Add & Pay.

• Debit payments.

At merchants that accept payments using Points, you can also choose to use your Points first. However, if you want to change your payment method or the Point usage setting, you need to unlink the pre-approved payment by going to Settings on the LINE Pay main menu > Pre-approved payment and set your payment method again.

If you've read the information above and still can't change a merchant's payment settings, please configure your settings from the merchant's app or web page.

If a pre-approved payment fails, you'll be notified of the name of the merchant or relevant service via a chat message from the LINE Wallet (LINE ウォレット) official account. You can check the status of your pre-approved payment method setting by either going to Settings on the LINE Pay main menu > Pre-approved payment.
Note: Tap here to go to the Pre-approved Payment screen from your smartphone.

After checking your pre-approved payment method, check the reason your payment failed below.
Note:

- If nothing appears in the Pre-approved Payment menu, see the "If other payments fail" section below and check the information in "The pre-approved payment period expired".

- You won't be able to check your set payment method for some merchants from the Pre-approved Payment menu, depending on the merchant. In this case, check the settings screen on the merchant's service.

If a LINE Pocket Money repayment fails

If the repayment could not be withdrawn from your account, please refer to the following Help article for other repayment methods.

I want to know more about repayments in case they cannot be withdrawn from my account (Only available in Japanese.)

If the repayment method that you set (bank account for repayment, LINE Pay balance) has a balance greater than the repayment amount, but the repayment still fails, it's possible that the repayment method is invalid. For more information, please refer to the following Help article.

When I access the main page, the Set a repayment method (返済方法の設定) screen appears (Only available in Japanese.)

If other payments fail

After checking your pre-approved payment method, check the reason your payment failed below.
Note: For information on which payment method to use for making a payment again after it failed, please confirm directly with the relevant merchant.

The pre-approved payment period expired

Your pre-approved payment will be cancelled if a certain period of time has passed since you set it or the last payment was made. You can check the status of your pre-approved payment link by going to Settings on the LINE Pay main menu > Pre-approved payment.
Note: Tap here to go to the Pre-approved Payment screen from your smartphone.

If nothing appears in the Pre-approved Payment menu, it means your pre-approved payment link was canceled due to the pre-approved payment period expiring. Please link your LINE Pay pre-approved payment again on the merchant's page.

For information on making a payment again after linking your pre-approved payment again, please contact the merchant directly.

Insufficient LINE Pay balance

This reason appears if you had your LINE Pay balance set as your pre-approved payment method. Make sure to check your LINE Pay balance and add enough money to make your payment.
Note: For information on making a payment again after adding money to your balance, please contact the merchant directly.

Insufficient bank account balance for a debit payment

This reason appears if you had debit payments set as your pre-approved payment method. Make sure to check your bank account balance and add enough money to make your payment.
Note: For information on making a payment again after adding money to your balance, please contact the merchant directly.

For inquiries related to LINE Pocket Money, contact us by adding the LINE Credit お問い合わせ (LINE Credit inquiries) official account as a friend on LINE.
Note: Support is only available in Japanese.

If you set your registered credit card as your payment method

Check the expiration date on your credit card to see if it expired. If you have a new card, try registering it after deleting the expired card. For the steps to add/delete a credit card, see the following Help article.

Adding/deleting a credit card
Note: For information on making a payment again after adding a new credit card, please contact the merchant directly.

If your credit card hasn't expired, it's possible you exceeded your spending limit, or the fraud prevention system was activated. In any of these cases, please contact your credit card company directly.

The merchant/amount in the chat message you received were unfamiliar

Please check with your credit card company or the service provider for details.

If you want to change or cancel your pre-approved payment method, see the following Help article.
