Help/Support Payment declined

I tried sending money to my dad but when I try it it says payment declined?? The thing is I don't have a credit card linked there?

Need more context. What are you trying to send money through? And if there is no money coming from your end I think it's obvious why it was declined lol.

Ah, did you account for fees? Try sending like $145.

Or try gifting it to him. I don't think there are fees associated with gifting.
