This error generally occurred when Your card is real, but it uses the test API keys.

First, make sure, did you replace your test publishable and secret API keys before going live?

If yes, then check if online net banking (or International transaction if you are using a different currency) is allowed with your card. You can check by login into your bank account, or contact your bank customer care to enable the transactions.

I double-checked that I am using live keys not test mode

Can you try with another card, if possible? I doubt with currency.

The issue can be from different card types other than, Mastercard, visa, discover, or Amex. Your location and currency also matter according to your government rules, so please revise them.

If you are facing the same issue, you can contact customer care / chat support for stripe directly. They can rectify the issue.

It means, The card number is no longer valid by Stripe and their APIs, so Stripe is declining the transaction. Visit here on official stripe documents or ask stripe support that why was your transaction declined?

Which card are you using?
