I received the following message when I try to activate Freelancer Plus.
Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later.
I used two different methods; Paypal and credit card, however, I received the same message.

Hi Muhammad,
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!

Hi Nimra,
This can vary based on your location, but all Upwork users will be able to purchase Connects with a credit card or prepaid card. If you aren’t able to use a credit card or prepaid card or you don’t have an Upwork balance, in many cases you’ll be able to use PayPal. To see the options available to you, click here.

Hi Rahul,
If you are trying to use a Payoneer prepaid master card or any other type of prepaid debit od credit card it will not work. Upwork only accepts major credit cards that are not prepaid.
Best,
Hugo
