App Store Connect and the Apple Developer Program charge recurring membership and can add tax, agreements, or paid service lines. Apple’s merchant profile is US-led; domestic-only or travel-locked cards often fail verification or renewal even when you have balance.
What works
Use one internationally accepted Visa as the default payment method in your Apple Developer / App Store Connect account, keep it funded before the annual renewal, and avoid swapping cards mid-cycle when Apple is re-validating identity or tax forms.
With Plu
Add your Plu Visa in App Store Connect → Agreements, Tax, and Banking (or Developer account billing). Fund Plu from supported banks or stablecoins so membership and paid agreements clear without declines.

App Store Connect — FAQ
Does Plu work for the Apple Developer Program annual fee?
Yes. Enter your Plu Visa as the payment method where Apple collects Developer Program membership. Keep the wallet funded before the renewal date so your account stays active.
Can I use the same card for App Store Connect and other Apple services?
Often yes — Apple may reuse the card on file for related developer charges. Keep one primary Plu Visa on the account and monitor notifications for any new authorization.
Will my Plu card work for App Store Connect payments?
Yes. Plu issues a Visa card built for international merchant billing. App Store Connect processes payments through standard card rails, so a funded Plu card with sufficient balance clears at checkout or on renewal — including recurring charges.
