Common reasons for Expensify card declines include:
- **Smart Limit exceeded**: Check your available limit under **Account > Wallet**.
- **Inactive or disabled card**: Contact your workspace admin to confirm the status of your card.
- **Frozen card**: If your card shows a **Frozen** badge in **Account > Wallet**, it has been temporarily frozen by your Workspace Admin. Contact them to have it unfrozen.
- **Inactive card**: If your card shows an **Inactive** badge in **Account > Wallet**, it is currently suspended. Contact your Workspace Admin to check the status of your card.
- **Incorrect details**: Double-check the CVC, ZIP code, and expiration date.
- **Suspicious activity**: You may need to manually approve flagged transactions from your Home page.
- **Restricted country**: Transactions are blocked in specific regions due to US sanctions.
