Paying for CELPIP exam from Costa Rica
In Costa Rica, fund Plu with bank transfer or stablecoins, then use your Plu Visa for cross-border digital services. CELPIP uses Paragon’s international payment stack — fund before seat confirmation.
What works
Use a Visa that passes Canadian education merchant authorization. In Costa Rica, that usually means a Visa profile that authorizes like US/EU shoppers — not a domestic-only debit curveball at renewal.
With Plu
Enter Plu Visa on celpip.ca registration payment steps.
