ChatGPT Plus Payment Issue

ChatGPT Use cases and examples
1

Dear ChatGPT Team,
I am a user from China, and I have been trying to upgrade to ChatGPT Plus but encountered payment issues. I have attempted to make the payment using the following credit cards but without success:

  1. ICBC Mastercard (China Industrial and Commercial Bank)
  2. China Construction Bank Visa
  3. China CITIC Bank Mastercard
    During the payment process, I encountered the following error message (Your credit card has been declined. Please try paying with a debit card.).
    Could there be any regional restrictions or other reasons that prevent me from using Chinese credit cards to make the payment? If so, do you have any alternative payment methods you would recommend? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Looking forward to your reply!
    Best regards,
    [XIONGGUANGHUI]

Welcome to the forum.

China is not currently a supported country for ChatGPT, that will be the reason for your issue.
