Hi Devat,

 

I'd like to clarify that some card-issuing banks will restrict the use of debit cards on Upwork due to the payments being classified as "recurring". Please, make sure that you are filling all the required fields correctly and that your card-issuing bank allows recurring transactions. Alternatively, you may use any other of the available billing methods.

 

Thank you.

Hello, I am not able to buy connects with my HDFC visa card. The card is successfully added in billing methods but whenever I try to buy connects it redirects me to same screen after taking otp. I talked to my bank and they say there is no problem with the card and ideally it should work.

 

Kindy help me out here.

Hi Eshu,

 

I would recommend to check with your bank if your account is enabled for international charges or you can try to add another billing method. Thank you.

Hi Onkar,

 

It looks like the charge on your credit card keeps getting declined. Please contact your card-issuing bank for more information about the specific charge decline. Meantime, you can add an alternative billing method in your account payment options.

 

Thank you!
