Fix issues with payments to merchants

If you sent money to a merchant but the transaction hasn’t been successful, use the information below to troubleshoot. 

Important: After you've sent money to a merchant, you can't cancel the transaction.

Step 1: Check transaction status

  1. Open Google Pay .
  2. From the bottom of the screen, slide your finger up to show your merchants.
    • To see all transactions, at the bottom, tap All transactions.
    • To see transactions with a specific merchant, tap the merchant.
  3. Tap on each transaction to view more details.

Payment processing

It may take up to 3 days for your bank to complete the transaction. After the processing period, the transaction status will change to 'Success' or 'Failed'.

Tip: Don't try to make the same payment while the status is 'Payment processing'.

The following statuses may appear when viewing your bank statement:

  • Success: The merchant will get the money.
  • Failed: The money will be put back into your account within 5 business days.

Step 2: Wait 3 days

Wait for your bank to complete the transaction. Customer support cannot help if it's been 3 days or less since your transaction.

Step 3: Check bank statements

Sometimes banks take extra time to transfer money. Ask the merchant to view their bank statement to check if they received the money.

If a transaction failed, check your own statement for the money. Any money deducted from your bank account will be refunded within 5 business days. The entry will say "UPI-REV" or "UPI-RET," followed by the UPI transaction ID.

Step 4: Report the transaction

If the money hasn't been received after 3 business days:

  1. Open Google Pay .
  2. Open the transaction you want to report.
  3. In the top-right, tap More More and then Raise a dispute and then Continue.
Tip: Only the person who sent the money can report a transaction. If you didn't make the transaction, ask the person that did to report it.
