Hi Sabrina,

 

It looks like the charge on your credit card is being declined. Please contact your card-issuing bank for more information about the specific charge decline. You can also check out this help article for more information about the Billing Methods available for purchasing connects and membership plans.
 
Thanks!

Hi KRISHAN,

 

Could you please check your PayPal account and the preferred payment methods you have set in your Wallet. You may also contact PayPal customer support to check if your account is set up correctly. You'll be able to select from an alternative billing method in your account payment options.

Hi Subrata, 

 

Only the Payoneer card can be used for purchasing connects. There are three billing methods available to freelancers, Credit or Debit Card, PayPal, or Upwork Balance. You can read more about available billing methods in this help article. You may want to talk to PayPal about what type of payment method can be added to your PayPal wallet.
