I’m trying to make a pledge on Kickstarter for the DP 200 yeswelder And it keeps declining my card and I don’t understand because there’s a balance of 500 on my card and I’m only trying to post for 429 to my card

If your card is being declined on Kickstarter even though you have sufficient funds, it may be due to various reasons such as your card issuer blocking the transaction, issues with the card details entered, or restrictions on international transactions. We recommend checking that your card number, expiration date, and CVV are correctly entered. Additionally, contacting your bank or card issuer may help determine if there are any blocks or issues on their end preventing the transaction.

I completed support for Tophouse Vinyl but did not receive confirmation. How do I follow up to be sure support pledged was confirmed?

To ensure your support was confirmed, log onto your Kickstarter account and navigate to your profile. From there, click on the "Backed Projects" section. Here, you will find a list of projects you've funded. The Tophouse Vinyl project should be on this list if your pledge was successful. If you do not see it, it's possible that your pledge was not processed. In this situation, we recommend trying the pledging process again. Even after a successful pledge, the email confirmation might have been missed or possibly ended up in your spam folder, so it could be a good idea to also check there.
