Godaddy Domain Registeration Payment Error Solution
Being the largest domain provider, godaddy is doing heavy email marketing with non-rejectabl offers. However, after we got a nice price and try to check out, the system does not accept and produce out this error
Because the code we applied provides us 35% discount and can only be processed by credit card, so I guess it should be problem from my credit card provider. However our cc provider confirmed everything is working good on their side. So finally I have to contact godaddy support for solution. Here're our communication with their support staff
You're chatting with Brandi.

There was a problem processing your transaction. Please verify your payment information or use an alternate form of payment.

Upon review of your message it sounds as though you are attempting to place an order online but are receiving an error message. The error you are receiving indicates that the promotional code you are trying to use is not eligible at this time. We are unable to process orders including this promotional code on your behalf, as the codes are for use online only. Most codes have various usage restrictions and as such we suggest reviewing the email or marketing notice you received announcing the code to determine the code's eligibility. You can try to clear the shopping cart, clear the cache in your browser and place the domain name again. Or let me know and I can reload your shopping cart again with this domain name.

So we see.. we're trying to get some discount with their code, but can't pay it although their system does generated a good price. After a bit research online, we found many people faced similar problems. Sometimes their support can help process it directly with that price but sometimes no like us.
