There might be some issue with your Visa card, better confirm if online payments are working or not.

Hi Nadia,
I checked your account and can see that all the cards rejected the transaction on Upwork. Please check this with your bank so that you can use your credit/debit card on Upwork moving forward.
In the meantime, you may add other billing method options that are available to you in your location.

Hey everyone,
From last few days, I am trying to add my visa debit card in the billing method and every time I see this error, we are unable to authorize the card. I am entering the right detail also I contacted my bank, they say from our side there is no issue. I added another visa card, with this card, no error comes.
I want to add my own debit card. Kindly give me the right information, how can I overcome this

I've made several attempts to buy connects but the windows goes and stays blank when I enter my CC info and submit. I've checked with my bank and the transactions have not been processed.

"We are unable to authorize your card. Please add another billing method or contact your issuing bank". I have a bank account in "Get Paid" and already withdraw using the bank account and it was success. But there is an error message when I buy connects using the same bank account. I need help so I can start working. Thank you

Hi Feljun,
I would like to confirm that withdrawing your Upwork earnings, and using it as a billing method are two different financial processes. And upon checking your account, I can see that the bank rejected the transaction. I would definitely recommend that you contact your issuing bank for more information about why the transaction was rejected. In the meantime, you can use a different credit/debit card to purchase connects.
