[Q] Unable to add debit card info to Google Wallet

[sk8er_boi47]

Hi All,
I wanted to purchase a paid app from Google play so I went ahead & entered my Debit Card details (I do not have credit card). I verified all the details & were entered correctly, but it still says “Invalid Credit card” ???
I’m entering debit card info, why does it say Credit card ? I have done various transactions in past using the same card & has worked fine, I donno why problem with google play / wallet?

Pls help.

This problem is because The Reserve Bank of India has introduced the Verified by Visa (VBV) and 3D Secure Code for Visa and MasterCards respectively. Read here to know more.

We can't use our cards unless Google implements this thing in their system too.

Oh. Thank you for the info Vishal. I hope Google does do something about this. I was however able to buy the app from Play Store via an ICICI Visa Debit Card. Has this got anything to do with the bank issuing the card as well? I was of the notion that the RBI guidelines would cover all Indian banks.

My bank in the UK (HSBC) has used both these methods for a number of years and I am able to use my card on the Play Store with no problems at all.

You said HSBC. HSBC cards don't have problem here too, neither HDFC. The problem is with some banks only but their number is huge.

HDFC Platinum Debit Card not working either

Hey Vishal
I just tried adding an HDFC card to the Wallet account but it says invalid credit card though I have been able to use it where credit cards were required earlier as well. Would creating a virtual NetSafe Card from HDFC website work instead?

I can't tell you. I don't know. Instead, you go and ask your bank why is it not being accepted. They will help you.

Same thing with HDFC...At least in Haryana. Can't purchase. Funny thing because I did purchase an app last year and it did work. However I tried today and it seems like it doesn't work anymore

Most debit cards stopped working since Google Play begun showing amount in INR.

Alternate solution:

1. Go to wallet.google.com
2. Add a new card
3. Enter your card no., name, etc.
4. Enter a fake US Address and a fake US Phone number (use fakenamegenerator.com for this)
5. Your card will be accepted
6. Now change your address and phone number back to your genuine ones
7. Enjoy!

There was a problem authorizing your card. Contact your bank if this problem continues.

Tried the fake stuff, nothing works. When going to the bank, they always reply "sarji aap NEFT use karein, atm to atm ke liye hota hai... online NEFT hota hai. " these dumbass.

My ICICI bank debit card works well.

Adding my HDFC card had a problem, like many said.

Unautorised card error occurs when your card has insufficient balance or bank has not autorised your card for internet use call your bank and ask them to activate your internet session when i first time added my card on google charged me $.99 I even did not make any purchase on googke play just add my card but after few day I received a refund from google .

Help me to have more choice for cards.

Hello i am from india. I use entropay to buy apps from google play, it works well. But entropay charge 4.95% of total amount while funding to their account. Is there any other online credit/debit card service which dont charge for funding ?

also does sbi bank virtual card works with google play ?

Want to buy Nexus 5, but can't setup Google Wallet.

Same problem. :|

Wanted to buy Nexus 5 from Play Store India but unable to setup my account on Google Wallet using an HDFC Debit Card. Is there any other way by which I could buy the phone from Google without shelling out any extra amount for it?

Online retailer Flipkart is selling the phone for INR 1k extra. I guess I'd have to buy from them only. *banghead*
