Hi, 

 

We tried purchasing connects with Debit card and Paypal but we are unable to do it.

 

It says "Your payment could not be processed. Please choose an alternate payment method or retry again later."

There is sufficient balance in account to proceed.

 

Can you help out.

Hi Nilesh, 

You may need to add an alternative payment method to your PayPal wallet in order to use your PayPal account as a billing method on Upwork. Please contact Paypal's Customer Support to resolve this issue.

Hi Nilesh, 

 

As I have mentioned yesterday, please add an alternative Paypal Wallet to your Paypal account and see if the issue persists. If it does, please contact Paypal's Customer Support directly for more information regarding your concern.

Hi,

I am not able to purchase Connects with Master Card even though I have sufficient funds. As per attached, it shows "We cannot complete your request now. Please try again." I have tried multiple times still no luck.

Could someone help asap.

Thanks.

Hi Ashwini,

 

Based on your screenshot, it seems that you are using your mobile to purchase Connects. Could you please confirm if that is the case? If it is, please try doing the same using your computer instead. There is an issue with accessing Upwork using the mobile app that might be causing this. You can check our status page for updates on the issue.

 

Thank you.
