If you see a debit for a rejected deposit attempt or a duplicate debit for the same transaction on your card statement, it could be an authorization charge from your card issuer.
When you make a deposit, your card issuer will first make an authorization charge to ensure you have enough funds to cover your transaction.

When a deposit is approved, the amount is debited from your card balance, but you may find a second debit for the same amount on your bank statement. This second debit refers to the funds initially set aside for the authorization charge. These funds should be released automatically within 10 business days, leaving you with just one debit per deposit.
