I am unable to add a debit card and PayPal account for purchasing connects.
Help!!

Hi Nishi, 

 

I checked your account and 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.

Hi Manoj, 

I checked and it looks like the transaction was not permitted by your bank. Please get in touch with your servicing bank directly so that they can assist you further with your concern. 

In the meantime, please add a different billing method to be able to upgrade your membership plan/buy connects.

I've tried two different cards and two different browsers, but when I try to add a billing method to purchase more connects the screen just goes blank and nothing happens (see attached picture). Anyone else having the same issue? Any suggestions from mods or others?

 

Thanks!
