Review the confirmation summary - any loads marked as 'Failed' will need to be reviewed, corrected and re-uploaded. All others have been successfully processed, so please do not re-upload these.

Why have some of my loads failed?

The most common reason for a failed card load is an incorrect Cardholder ID (CHID) in your submitted template. This may be a simple typo, but can also often occur if a card has been replaced and the old CHID has been entered. Please run this report to check the CHID, update your template and resubmit the failed row(s).
