reenter_transactionSafe to retryStripe decline code: Reenter transaction
The transaction couldn't be processed; submit again.
Recovery outlook
Safe to retry. A soft decline. The charge can succeed on a later attempt. The win is retry timing, not another immediate hit.
What it means
The issuer couldn't process the transaction and is asking for it to be resubmitted.
Why it happens
A transient glitch on the issuer or network side interrupted processing.
Can you retry it?
Resubmit the charge after a brief pause. It usually clears on the second attempt without any change to the card.
Recovery playbook
- 1Retry the charge shortly after the failure.
- 2If it repeats, add a longer delay.
- 3Move to dunning only after multiple failures.
- 4Keep a retry cap in place.
How Reecova handles reenter_transaction
Reecova classifies reenter_transaction as a soft decline and schedules retries with timing tuned to when the charge is likely to clear, instead of a blind fixed-interval retry that hits the same wall. It runs across your whole Stripe account automatically, and shows the dollars each code is costing you.
