What does response code 2005C mean?

The Visa response code 2005C "Transaction not supported/blocked by issuer" replaces response code 57 "Transaction not permitted to cardholder". 

It means the payment is declined by the customer’s issuing bank. Prompt your customer to try a different card or to contact their bank for further support.

For Card Payouts, the decline is likely because:

  • The card has a restricted recipient bank identification number (BIN).
  • The issuer does not authorize unauthenticated transactions.

Contact the issuer for more information about the decline.
