Q: I tried to register online, however, my credit card was declined. I know the card is good. What should I do?
A: If you are using a debit card, we have found that sometimes there are problems with our processing system. You may need to use a credit card or send a check with payment (in US Dollars). You may also contact the ISPE office and request that we enter the credit card information for you, which we will be happy to do.
Please note: If the system has declined your card once, it is likely it will still decline it even if we input it. In that case, we would contact you and ask you to either provide a different credit card or send a check. Your registration will be accepted as of the date payment is made, not when a registration form is received.
