# AVS Error When Processing Payment

 * One of our client’s websites is set up with the official Woocommerce Authorize.
   net AIM plugin to process their payments. Ordering as a customer is no problem
   and we’ve confirmed it’s been set up properly.
 * This client takes a lot of orders over the phone so your plugin is supposed to
   be a good solution for keeping the entire ordering process on one page.
 * However despite the customer’s billing info being input correctly on the “Add
   Order” page we get this error every time:
 * “The transaction has been declined because of an AVS mismatch. The address provided
   does not match billing address of cardholder.”
 * We’ve tried this with sending the billing address info enabled and disabled in
   the plugin settings. Would there be a reason this info is not being sent over
   properly?
 * Thank you for your time.

 * Hey [@starfiredev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/starfiredev/).
 * Can you please provide the following information? For privacy purposes, you can
   email this information to [bfl.wordpress.org@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/avs-error-when-processing-payment/bfl.wordpress.org@gmail.com?output_format=md):
    1. The exact billing address copied directly from the _Address line 1_ and _Address
       line 2_ fields on the _Edit order_ page.
    2. A screenshot of the _Transaction Detail_ popup for the relevant transaction 
       in your Authorize.Net Merchant Interface.
 * I also have a few questions:
    1. Are you getting this error for all orders or just this one?
    2. Have you ever had AVS issues with your regular payment gateway plugin?
 * If you just want a quick solution, the easiest thing to do would be to disable
   the billing details option that you mentioned and then set the _Transaction was
   submitted without a billing address_ option in your AVS settings to anything 
   other than _Decline_. That would cause transactions processed with this plugin
   to bypass AVS but would not affect transactions processed by customers.

 * I have sent you an email with the details along with a screenshot. I’ll re-post
   the body text:
 * “Per your response last week here is the screenshot of the AVS error we receive
   when trying to make a backend payment. This happens with all names and addresses
   when using this method, not just the one we personally tested. The normal ordering
   process is still fine on the front end. We have had no other issues with processing
   orders with Authorize.net either.
 * We even tried disabling the request for the billing address in the plugin settings
   but we still received the same error.”

 * Sorry, that email went to spam. Can you please send a screenshot of the _Transaction
   Detail_ popup for the relevant transaction in your Authorize.Net Merchant Interface?
   Thanks.

 * I have sent you the screenshot from the Authorize.net backend for our test transaction.
   As you can see no data was brought over from our site to Authorize. Other successful
   transactions have all the data filled in.

 * That’s the result from attempting to process a payment for an order that has 
   billing information? And with the billing details option on?

 * That’s correct, yes. The option was enabled for this transaction as well as many
   others. We did try it without and it still didn’t work.

 * Are you using the `woo_mp_authorize_net_charge_request` filter by any chance?
   It seems like it’s failing the AVS filter because the billing address is not 
   being sent.

 * I don’t believe we are however I’m not certain. I’ve just sent you screenshots
   of our settings for the Manual Payment Gateway plugin if that helps.
