Reasons for Failed Payroll Transactions

Failed payroll transactions can occur due to various reasons such as technical issues within the Jack system or disruptions from the banking side (rejection by the bank, timeout error, rejected by the bank, cannot authenticate request, and payload validation failed). If those cases happen, reach out to our dedicated Account Manager and they will investigate and resolve the issues promptly.

However, if you have entered the correct information but notice an error on our end, please don't hesitate to contact our dedicated Account Manager for assistance and resolution.
