Why is the payment process failing in my online store?

Hi guys! I need some help. When I try to buy something on my shopify store, I can enter everything, but when I push the pay now button, it buffers and says the card didn’t work and to try another one. I have had 2 other people try it, so I know it is not just me. How can I fix this so people can check out?
