Understanding the $149 Temporary Hold on Your Credit Card When Signing Up for Kajabi: A Quick Guide

"Maria, I used your Kajabi trial. Why do I see a $149 temporary hold charged to my credit card account?"

 

Are you considering Kajabi for your online business? I'm your go-to expert for all things Kajabi and online business strategies. If you've recently signed up for a trial on Kajabi and noticed a $149 temporary hold on your credit card account, don't panic! Let's break down what this means and why it's happening.

What's with the $149 Temporary Hold?

When you sign up for a trial on Kajabi, you might see a $149 temporary hold on your credit card statement. But here's the important thing to note: this isn't a charge. Instead, it's a temporary hold placed on your card to validate your payment information.

Why Does Kajabi Place a Hold?

Kajabi utilizes this temporary hold as a standard procedure to ensure the validity of your payment method. It's a way for them to verify that the card you've provided is active and has sufficient funds to cover any charges that may occur once your trial period ends.

Here's how it works: When you sign up for a trial, Kajabi sends a request to your bank or credit card issuer to verify your payment details. As part of this process, a temporary hold of $149 is placed on your card. If the validation is successful, meaning your card is deemed valid and has enough funds, the hold will be removed after seven days.

What Happens If the Validation Fails?

If, for any reason, your card is found to be invalid or has insufficient funds during the validation process, your Kajabi account will not be created. In this case, you'll need to use a valid form of payment to proceed with setting up your Kajabi account.

So, if you've noticed a $149 temporary hold on your credit card after signing up for a Kajabi trial, rest assured that it's a standard part of the validation process. Remember, it's not a charge, and the hold will be removed after seven days if everything checks out.

Remember, the temporary hold is just a small step on your journey to building a thriving online business with Kajabi. Let's make it happen together!
