Unable to make payment from India

Hi, have been facing the same issue for the past 3 days. None of my payments are getting through. I have tried with multiple cards ranging from VISA, RUPAY, Mastercard of HDFC Bank, none of them are going through and I get a message for merchant being non compliant on e-mandate. Kindly resolve it at the earliest.

Hi, Still facing issue with my card. Getting non complaint on e-mandate exception as others.
This card was working previously and I had paid couple of openAI bills with it. But now its not working.

I’m facing the same issue. Unable to make the payment because of “Non compliant Recurring or e-mandate” using my HDFC debit card.

Used SBI credit card, and that worked.
But the problem otherwise remains for Infinia, other HDFC cards and AmEx. Not sure if it will work again next month

This is Super Frustrating, just had the problem now and I have a deadline soon. Visa cards from France and UAE didn’t go through, honestly how can OPENAI mess up that to this point ?

similar thing is happening with the pro plans. i am getting processing error and when contacted my bank, they say that openai needs to provide more details (maybe authentication etc through 3d pin or otp)

I am facing a similar problem using HDFC Bank Credit & Debit Cards. Upon enquiry I was told by the Bank that they do not accept standing instructions from OpenAI. However, when I used the same card with Claude.AI, the transaction went through.

This seems to be an OpenAI problem or a problem with the payment gateway providers - Link and/or Stripe.

Please DO NOT ask customers to use different cards - since several people like me deal with one bank. So what is the solution?

Can someone from OpenAI resolve this issue immediately? This is frustrating.

I faced the same issue today when trying a HDFC card for OpenAI payment. Apparently, OpenAI is not compliant with RBI’s payment guideline at present. can someone help with this?

Yes, same here. Tried with multiple credit cards (Axis Bank, HDFC) cant type OTP at payment popup. Removing and adding card details does not work. When I contacted the bank, they said they can’t find out and we have to contact openAI. I wrote to support(at)openai.com and got a standard template response looks AI generated. Frustrating that project work has been held up for the past 2 days thanks to this. If I don’t get a response in a few days, may switch over to Anthropic or Google Gemini.
