FAQ
Will my Plu card work for Vercel payments?
Yes. Plu issues a Visa card built for international merchant billing. Vercel processes payments through standard card rails, so a funded Plu card with sufficient balance clears at checkout or on renewal — including recurring charges.
Why does my local card sometimes fail on Vercel?
Vercel bills through US- and EU-based processors. Domestic-only debit cards or bank cards without international authorization often get rejected at the network level — not by Vercel itself. Plu is a Visa card explicitly built for cross-border SaaS and subscription billing, so authorization profiles match what Vercel's acquirer expects.
How do I fund Plu before paying Vercel?
Top up Plu via local bank transfer, mobile money in supported markets (M-Pesa, Wave, Orange Money, MTN MoMo), or USDT/USDC on Tron (TRC20) or Ethereum (ERC20). Stablecoins clear in seconds with sub-$1 network fees on Tron. Once funded, add your Plu Visa in Vercel's billing settings and you're ready to pay.
