Using a bank card to pay for purchases on AliExpress has a number of advantages over other payment methods. This fact attracts not only shoppers, but also fraudsters. It is not uncommon for fraudsters to try to use stolen cards and their details to pay for goods on Aliexpress as a method of laundering stolen money.
To minimise such cases, the marketplace has developed and implemented a special security system. Its task is to analyse the bank cards and payments used by users in order to reject suspicious financial transactions.
That’s why some buyers on AliExpress occasionally encounter the error CSC_7200026. Our editorial team has looked into the problem and is ready to help solve it.
The reason for error CSC_7200026
The error CSC_7200026 is an alert that Aliexpress security system considered the attempt to use the bank card too suspicious. For security reasons it is not possible to make the payment. The marketplace wants to verify that the cardholder is indeed you.
- New buyer. Users who have recently registered an account on AliExpres are subject to special attention;
- Registration and transaction region. AliExpress closely analyzes registration region, shipping address and the buyer’s location at the time of payment;
- Bank card. To use any card to pay for orders, it is obligatory to attach it to the account. To do so, the buyer states the card number, cardholder’s first and last name, expiry date and security code (CVV/CVC). Use of the same card in multiple Aliexpress accounts may raise suspicion;
- Buyer and cardholder details. If the account is registered to one data, but the payment is made from a card which belongs to another person;
- System failure. In any system malfunctions and false positives can occur. This reason is especially relevant during big sales, when the marketplace experiences a serious strain on the infrastructure due to an influx of customers.
The marketplace asks for card verification, and asks for additional documents to confirm it. You can’t refuse this procedure if you want to use your bank card for purchases on AliExpress in the future.
How to correct an error
Verifying your bank card helps prevent unauthorized transactions and fraud. When error CSC_7200026 occurs, the marketplace sends an email with instructions.
The buyer is required to upload a scan of their passport or driving licence. Other documents will not be considered by the administration of the marketplace. The scanned copy must be in colour.
If the buyer’s profile states one name, and the passport another – verification will not be passed. The data on Aliexpress must match the passport data. Verification process takes 1-3 business days. But during the periods of global sales the application processing time may be reduced.
