Hi all

 

 

 

Trying to set up Amazon Prime for my kids. Have a onesmart MasterCard and for some reason Amazon will not accept this card for payment.

 

I have tried setting up a new account (using a different email address) with my NZ details but I still get this error message.

 

My original amazon account that I have been using for years has all of a sudden stopped accepting this card and I can't figure out why.

 

In the past I had brought from the US with the card no issues and had sent to NZ.

 

 

 

Have used this card on other platforms with no issue.

 

 

 

Any suggestions on what I can try.

 

 

 

Thanks

 

 

 

Any suggestions?

Not sure if related but my Mastercard is being rejected for payment with Amazon too. I'm thinking it may be because the expiry is 11/22. Not sure, have asked the bank

Possibly they are rejecting reloadable cards. I found the OneSmart (and the Qantas equivalent when they offered that in NZ) to sometimes not work at certain retailers.

 

May be worth checking the address/postcode/etc in your OneSmart profile and checking it matches the info in your Amazon account. This is one of the fraud prevention measures some retailers use.
