Hello @Hstockman,
Welcome to the Community!
I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulty making a payment. Based on the error message you received, it sounds like there may be a connection issue. I suggest restarting your device or disconnecting and reconnecting it to the internet. Next, clear your cache and cookies on your preferred browser. If that doesn't work, it may help to try a different browser or device. You can learn more about why payments may be declined on our Help Center here: Why was my payment declined?
I hope you can make the payment soon!
- Meghan
