- Do the name, address (all spelling, letter case and punctuation), and card numbers exactly match those you have entered? You didn't mis-type anything?


- You entered the expiration date and 3 digit security code for the card? Correctly?


- The country for the bank and your address are the same as the iTunes Store country you are using?


- See the end of the declined payment document linked above for special measures that may be necessary for some cards, plus about contacting your financial institution to make sure your records match.
