# Error: Invalid payment amount

 * I updated to Forminator 1.52.2. A user submitted their entry with total amount
   of $518 and got “Error: Invalid payment amount.” I have screenshots of their 
   entry.
 * Last year when I updated Forminator, it also caused errors.
 * I temporarily made the Dues field optional so that I could test it without submitting
   dues myself. I entered $1 in “Additional donation” and it submitted successfully.
 * Here is the export of my form: [https://pastebin.com/k7dHtcj6](https://pastebin.com/k7dHtcj6)

 * I recreated the form from scratch and rounded the calculation of the total amount
   to an integer. Still having the same error. Users are unable to submit a payment.
   Here’s the new form:

 * Hello [@elmonty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elmonty/),
 * Thank you for reaching out and for sharing the form export — we really appreciate
   it.
 * I’ve imported your Forminator forms on my end and tested both of them using **
   v1.52.2**, but I wasn’t able to reproduce the issue. The form submissions, including
   payment amounts, are going through as expected without triggering the _“Invalid
   payment amount”_ error.
 * To help us investigate this further on your setup, could you please provide a
   bit more detail on how the issue occurs?
    - The **exact steps** to reproduce the issue (e.g., which fields are filled 
      and with what values)
    - Whether the issue happens consistently or only in specific cases
    - A **link to the form on your live/test site**, if possible
 * This will allow us to better understand what might be triggering the error in
   your environment and guide you more accurately.
 * Looking forward to your update — we’ll be happy to continue investigating this
   with you.
 * Best regards,
   Mina Emad

   address. I need this solved ASAP so people can pay their dues. Thank you.

 * This error has now happened to multiple users. Here’s a screenshot of one of 
   the user’s entries and the error.

 * Hi [@elmonty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elmonty/),
 * I understand your concern, and I am extremely sorry about the inconvenience you
   are experiencing.
 * I imported the form to a test website at my end, and I was able to replicate 
   the issue. However, I was unable to replicate the issue when I re-created a new
   form at my end.
 * I have now brought this to the notice of our code experts to take a closer look
   at the issue, and we’ll update you here once we have more feedback on this as
   soon as possible.
 * Best Regards,
    Nebu John

   their dues. Thank you.

 * Hi [@elmonty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elmonty/),
 * I am sorry, an ETA on this cannot be provided at the moment, as code experts 
   work on more complex issues and have a delayed response time when compared to
   the general support we provide here. However, I have pinged them to see if we
   can provide any insights as soon as possible.

 * Hello [@elmonty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elmonty/),
 * I hope things are going well on your end.
 * Our team closely reviewed the form export file. You’ll have to change two places
   to get the solution in the form.
 * 1. Need to change the checkbox-2 field’s calculation value to `0.35` from `0.035`
   
   Screenshot ref: [https://monosnap.ai/file/e1Z4G5f5EnFxpEuK6xe80zDlyjPRnI](https://monosnap.ai/file/e1Z4G5f5EnFxpEuK6xe80zDlyjPRnI)
 * 2. Then change the formula in the calculation field and use `({checkbox-2}/10)`
   instead of ` {checkbox-2}
    round(({radio-1}+{checkbox-1}+{number-1})*(({checkbox-
   2}/10)+1)) ` Screenshot ref: [https://monosnap.ai/file/VSV3kL6Kd7220ahhOgGD4x1mD9oxXa](https://monosnap.ai/file/VSV3kL6Kd7220ahhOgGD4x1mD9oxXa).
 * Please give it a try and share the outcome.
