# How to Pay After a Failed Payment

Resolve a failed payment and restore your Proxidize subscription.

## How to Pay After a Failed Payment

If a subscription payment fails, the subscription moves to **On Hold** until the payment is completed.

You can pay from **Billing → Subscriptions** or from **Billing → Orders**.

Open **Billing** in the Proxidize app.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**You have 5 days from the failed payment to complete it.**

If the payment is not completed in that time, your proxies and their configuration are lost, including tags and location settings.
{% endhint %}

### Pay a subscription that is on hold

1. Click your **profile icon** in the top-right corner of the app, then click **Billing**.
2. On the **Subscriptions** page, find the subscription showing **On Hold**.
3. Click the **three-dot menu** in the **Actions** column, then click **Renew Subscription**.
4. Complete the payment.

The subscription returns to **Active** once the payment is confirmed.

### Pay a pending order

Use this if the order shows **Pending**.

1. Open **Billing → Orders**.
2. Find the order showing **Pending**, then click **Pay** in the **Actions** column.
3. Complete the payment.

After payment is complete, the order should show **Paid** and the related subscription should be restored.

### If the payment fails again

Check that your card is valid and has enough available funds.

To pay with a different card, add one first.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.proxidize.com/account-and-billing/billing-and-subscriptions/how-to-pay-after-a-failed-payment.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
