Paying for Intercom from Japan
In Japan, fund Plu with bank transfer or stablecoins, then use your Plu Visa for subscriptions that bill in USD outside Japan. Intercom scales with seats and resolutions — cards must handle uplift invoices.
What works
Billing admin attaches a funded international Visa. In Japan, that usually means a Visa profile that authorizes like US/EU shoppers — not a domestic-only debit curveball at renewal.
With Plu
Set Plu Visa in Intercom billing settings.

Why does my local card fail on Intercom in Japan?
Intercom often bills through international acquirers. Domestic-only debit profiles or BINs without cross-border authorization are declined at the network — not necessarily by Intercom's UI. Plu is a Visa card built for that billing profile.
