Why a payment might still show as "Due" right after paying

After a successful payment, Stripe sends Atlas a confirmation separately from redirecting you back to the site. Your invoice status updates when that confirmation arrives, which is usually within moments but isn't instantaneous.

If you're redirected back and the invoice still says "Due," that's expected — it isn't a failed payment, and it will update automatically once confirmation lands. There's no need to pay twice or contact us unless it's still showing as due after a few minutes.
