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.

Hello Upwork Community, I'm new to Upwork.
I've sent my free connects to client's job postings. Now I'd love to upgrade my membership to Plus. But I can't able to add my card details. I have a Mastercard(Debit) and also have PayPal. I tried 2 different ways to add my billing method. But no one works. Please let me know your thoughts to clear this issue. Is Credit card mandatory to add billing methods?
Nov 1, 2019 10:49:11 PM by Paarth J
Hello Mate,
Please contact Upwork team so they can charge from your card and verify it.
If the charge gets declined, please double-check this with your bank so that we can verify your bank account. Thank you!

Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later.
Nov 3, 2019 10:30:40 PM by Avery O
Hi Manoj,
It looks like your bank has rejected the transaction on your account. Kindly check with your bank why the transaction was rejected, and in the meantime, use another billing method to be able to purchase Connects on Upwork.
Nov 5, 2019 11:12:22 PM by Avery O
Hi Manoj,
Kindly refer to my response on your post last Sunday on this link.

Hello, I was looking to purchase the connects bidding purpose. But error was coming that "Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later".
Then i message about this problem at this platform.
I received the email fromZendesk that the problem is from the bank and Bank is declining the payment request.
I have thorougly check with my Bank and they are informing me that i am entering the wrong 3 digit security code that is the reason the payment is declining.
But i have rechecked and entered the right security code many times but same eroor is coming.
May be website is fetching the wrong 3 digit security code that is the reason the bank is declining the payment.
Therefore, Upwork is kindly requested to check the system and solve this issue so i may purchase the Connects and starting bids.
Waiting for your kind reply.

Hi, I wondering if upwork offers any kind of email or chat support? I'm having issue with my credit card?
Nov 4, 2019 09:20:57 PM by Avery O
Hi Wasim,
Were you trying to add your credit card to be able to purchase connects for your account? I looked into this further and can see that your bank declined the transaction. Please get in touch with your local bank for more information on why the transaction from Upwork was declined. In the meantime, please add an alternative billing method to be able to purchase connects on Upwork.

Hello Community!
I am trying to buy connects but I am getting "Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later." repeatedly. I already tried with multiple cards VISA,Master, etc. Is there anything special needed for Indian cards?
I also tried with paypal but it also gives me same error with "charge failed".
Please let me know if you need any further info.
Thank you,

I have no any card. But my friend has a payoneer card. Can I buy Connects with his payoneer card? But his name, address is all different. Will there be a problem in this case?
Nov 5, 2019 11:10:46 AM by Bojan S
Hi Manik,
Please use a billing method you are authorized to use. If any issues arise, the Upwork team will notify you directly.
Thank you!
Nov 5, 2019 12:36:58 PM by Bojan S
Hi Manik,
As long as the owner of the billing method authorized you to use it, you should be able to add it to your account. If any issues arise, Upwork team will notify you directly.
Thank you!
