I have deployed a multi-vendor e-commerce mobile application but am having a problem adding a credit card for my payment method. I don't know what the error is as am not getting any details. Am from Malawi, and I use this same card to make payments. I have already sent 3 emails but am seeing any responses. If there is an alternative, please help

TL;DR
Developers had trouble adding a credit card to pay for a Pro account. The issue was with the issuing bank, causing the payment failure. The temporary solution involved disabling limits on the account while engaging with the bank to resolve the situation. Additionally, suggestions were made for reducing bandwidth and optimizing images. In the end, the user requested an alternative payment method due to the urgency of the situation.

Users are having this issue just a day after publishing to play store. This is really nightmare after the whole developement to only get crushed by a payment system

Is the payment method saved? Like I mentioned in the email, the error comes from your bank so you will need to contact them to see why they are blocking the transaction

You see, I have been developing the app on a free plan. It worked, and now Iam switching to a Pro plan. I dont have a billing account/method. Am trying to add now. Thats where am facing this issue.

Should be this tab when you’re on the main cloud page, scrolling down should give option to add payment method

I think it could really be my bank service...everything is failing.

I DONT KNOW IF THERE COULD BE A WAY YOU COULD HELP US TEMPORARILY TO SEND THE PAYMENT TO ANY ACCOUNT THAT COULD HELP US BE BACK ONLINE right away as the app is down while new users are trying to create their accounts in mass. Making it worse, we have an advert scheduled in 4 hours on our local TV Channel, paid and slotted!

Am from Malawi(Africa) and our banks can be terrible!! This could take an unpredictable time for them to sort out, and with it, kill a very promising product

@winstonmhango23 I've temporarily disabled the limit on your project. However we don't have anything in place at the moment to accept payment directly.

We are engaging the bank on our side to clear this out, so we can add our credit cards and make payments right away

Ps: for the future you can try to reduce the bandwidth with image optimization (preview endpoint to set a lower image size and quality) and database Query.select()
