I just joined Upwork last month and used up all my connects.

I've tried several times to pay for more connects but for some reason it won't accept my information.  I just get a blank Billing box and I still have 0 connects.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Hi,
I've attached UBL MasterCard as a payment gatway but upwork receiving a decline code from the bank "Transaction not permitted to issuer/cardholder". In such cases the card owner needs to contact their bank to find out why the transaction is being declined.

UBL customer support says your card session is activated and okay but state bank of pakistan do not allow few sites for online transactions.

Please I would like to confirm the alternate payment method to buy connects.

Thank you!

Hi Muhammad,

Your billing method is active but the charge on your card was declined. Please double check with your bank about this or add another billing method.

Thank you!
