Suspicious Apple Card transaction after successful payment

Hi, so I was trying to buy something online, entered my Apple Card information, but forgot to click Apple Pay button and somehow the transaction didn’t go through. Then, I clicked the button for Apple Pay and it went through successfully. But now, in my wallet app, I see that failed transaction which was flagged as suspicious and it asks me whether it was me making the purchase or not. I technically did, but if I click “yes”, will it charge me? Because I already paid and I definitely don’t want that. I also don’t wanna click no because it will charge my card number. Is it safe to click yes? Thanks.

Once the transaction has failed the token for the transaction is invalid and can’t be used again. Clicking Yes will alert their fraud team that is actually was you and should have gone through. Banks try to minimize customer friction and the information may be used to improve your experience for future transactions. Always give the factual answer.
