Unable to make Indian E-visa payment

When I am applying for a 30 day tourist E-visa, on the official Indian visa site (https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/), I keep getting stuck at the payment part. It says:

The Visa fee payment status updation may take up to 2 hours due to technical reasons/network delays.

Applicants are advised to wait for 2 hours before payment of Visa fee again. In cases, where Visa fee has been deducted but status is not updated, the applicants are advised to verify their payment status by clicking on 'Verify Payment/Pay Visa Fee' tab on Home page.

No matter how long I wait, I keep getting the same error. Does anybody know what I can do to make it work?

I'm from the Netherlands myself
