I only have a debit card from TrueMoney Wallet, so both Link and the Railway billing system don’t accept my card. What can I do?

Unfortunately the only way to pay really is with a credit card (or a debit card that gets acknowledged as a credit card, such as a visa card)


no alternatives...

unfortunately Railway only accepts credit/debit cards, so crypto payments won't work either

yea, Railway does use Stripe, but Railway's Stripe is configured to decline prepaid cards (or anything that isn't a debit/credit card)

If I may, @x2Swiftz you guys could try using Privacy.com, they can take in a bank account or card and you can generate merchant-specific cards, I use it for security reasons, however it may work for your use case

To be clear, I don't work for Railway, I'm just a moderator for the server and forums. That might've been possible but there's 2 reasons why that won't work now:

  • I don't think Railway supports sending credits to others anymore, you could've given me the card and I could've sent you the equivelant in credits (althouh I also don't know what the rules are regarding exchanging credits for cash so I'd still have asked to make sure)
  • and first time purchase can't be done via credits so even if credit transfers were still possible, you wouldn't be able to use it to buy your plan (subsequent payments can be made via credits though)

Unfortunately, there isn't a way around this

they help with paying Internationally, they give you access to full bank details in many countries/unions, i believe they also offer cards, however if they dont offer a card for you, you could use Wise with Privacy.com

Right, so if you're able to open a Wise account, they give you bank details across the whole world that you can use for different currencies. You could use those to make a privacy.com account.

And then privacy.com will give you cards to use

That's just for the wise card, so it's a whole different product they have
