What's Wrong?

I'm experiencing a persistent billing system issue when trying to purchase additional seats for my team plan (Appliedepi organization). All payment attempts fail with generic "Payment failed" message despite confirmed working payment methods and bank approval. I have tried troubleshooting with FinAI and contacted your sales team, none of which resolved the issue and ended suggesting I should post an issue.

Tried multiple payment methods (all confirmed working with bank) Tested different browsers Cleared cache and cookies Disabled browser extensions Tried multiple operating systems Tried both direct seat purchase flow and "Manage" button under Total seats in Organization settings > Billing

What Should Happen?

Seat purchase should complete successfully with valid payment methods

Error Messages/Logs

"Payment failed - it looks like that didn't go through"

Steps to Reproduce

Log into Claude.ai with Appliedepi organization account
Navigate to Organization settings > Billing
Click "Manage" button under Total seats section
In the "Seat breakdown" modal, click "Add or change seats"
Click the "+" next to Standard seat type to add seats
Click "Next" to review purchase details
Check the confirmation box
Click "Confirm & purchase"
Enter payment information (tried multiple cards from different banks)
Complete any required verification steps
Observe error: "Payment failed - it looks like that didn't go through"

Alternative reproduction path:

Try to add a new team member when no seats available
When prompted to purchase additional seat, proceed with purchase flow
Same error occurs at payment step

Consistency: Error occurs 100% of the time across multiple browsers, payment methods, and attempts over several days.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The billing system issue may be related to the payment processing flow, and verifying the payment gateway configuration or reaching out to the Anthropic API support team could help resolve the issue.

Guidance

  • Verify that the payment gateway used by the Claude Code is properly configured and supported by the Anthropic API.
  • Check if there are any known issues or maintenance notifications from the payment gateway or Anthropic API that could be causing the payment failures.
  • Attempt to use a different payment method or gateway, if possible, to isolate the issue.
  • Reach out to the Anthropic API support team to investigate potential issues with the payment processing flow or to request additional logging or debugging information.

Notes

The issue seems to be specific to the payment processing flow, and without more detailed logging or debugging information, it's challenging to pinpoint the exact cause. The fact that multiple payment methods and browsers have been tried suggests that the issue may be related to the underlying payment gateway or API configuration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Reach out to the Anthropic API support team to investigate potential issues with the payment processing flow, as they may be able to provide more detailed guidance or resolve the issue on their end.
