Sponsered row bug

Summary

I ran a Sponsored Row campaign, it finished, but the payment didn’t go through. Now the campaign is stuck as “completed but unpaid,” and I can’t change the payment method or fix anything. Every time I try to update it, I get “something went wrong.”

Dates are locked, payment options are locked, I can only change the title for some reason. PayPal has money so that’s not the issue.

Also pushing new campaigns gives the same error (something went wrong)

Steps to Reproduce

1.	Create a Sponsored Row campaign normally.
2.	Set a small budget (mine was $10) and choose PayPal as payment.
3.	Let the campaign run until the budget is fully spent and it shows as completed.
4.	After it finishes, check the payment — it never charges.
5.	Try to edit anything related to billing or payment → error pops up saying “Something went wrong.”
6.	All fields (dates, payment method, etc.) become completely locked except the title.
7.	Try switching payment method or re-submitting → same error every time.

Expected Result

After the campaign finishes, the system should charge my payment method normally, or at least let me update the payment method or retry the payment without errors.

Observed Result

The campaign finished but never charged me, and now everything is stuck. I can’t change the payment method, can’t retry the payment, and every time I try to edit anything, it just throws the “Something went wrong” error. Only the title can be changed — everything else is locked.

Hi I am facing the same problem here i want to solve the problem

hi All,

The original documents are

Sponsored Row Campaign Tools for Fortnite Developers

Please check that your Hyperwallet settings are correct in as this has caused many problems.

This is not supported in China; they use WeChat and PayPal China.

PayPal had blocked all transactions due to its security programs, and users were not authorising them in the PayPal app.

Therefore, the Epic Program said “Something went wrong”, because it could not say “Go to your payment method and authorize the transaction”

i have used my Mastercard to add the payment option but they havent charges me yet

hi All,

Found this post

Sponsor Row charging for impression but map not on sponsored row - General / Issues and Bug Reporting - Epic Developer Community Forums

Perhaps charging has stopped because of “overcharging” , which is WRONG
