  I want to transfer tokens to someone else but it says that my star level isn't high enough

Problem: You cannot transfer tokens to another player. The message tells you that your star level is not high enough.

Possible Reasons:
  • You are a new player
  • You have recently changed your account information

Solutions:
  • To protect our customers, there are a number of credentials that your account must meet before you are allowed to transfer tokens. The star level associated with your account is one of these credentials. Your account must have a star level of 2.5. Each new player starts out with 1 star. Earn stars by keeping your account in good standing with successful transactions over a period of time.
  • When you change your account information, your star level may decrease. This is a security measure intended to protect our customers.

  My card keeps getting declined

Problem: When you try to purchase tokens or set up a subscription or auto token purchase, you get a message that says your card has been declined.

Possible Reasons:
  • You did not enter your card information correctly
  • You are using a saved card and the information is not correct on that card
  • You are from Canada and did not enter your postal code in the proper format
  • Your card is not good

Solutions:
  • Double check your information and try again. If you continue to fail, do not try again. Email support.
  • You cannot edit the card number, card type, or AVS code of a card once you have added it to our system using the "Keep on File" option. If you have incorrectly entered that information you will have to delete the incorrect card and add a new one. Please also double check that the card information has not changed since your last purchase.
  • Canadian banks require you to enter your postal code as 6 alphanumeric characters, all caps, with a space after the third character (ex: 4RR U82)
  • Contact your bank
