Payment issues?

If you see 'payment blocked' or 'too risky', this is Stripe's automated fraud prevention — not a merchant decision. Common causes and fixes:

1. VPN / Proxy
Turn off your VPN or switch to a node matching your card's issuing country. IP-to-card country mismatch often triggers the block.

2. Card not enabled for international payments
Make sure your credit/debit card has international online transactions enabled — some banks disable this by default.

3. Try a different card
Prefer Visa / Mastercard credit cards. Prepaid or virtual cards are more likely to be blocked.

4. Browser issues
Try incognito/private mode, or a different browser. Some extensions can interfere with the payment flow.

5. Still not working?
Contact the author via Alipay or PayPal to complete the payment.
