"Sorry, we weren't able to authorize your card. Please choose another way to pay."

oVPN doesn't accept AMEX cards directly, their customer service suggested to add my card on PayPal and then make the purchase through PayPal as they do accept PayPal, when attempting to make the purchase I get the error "Sorry, we weren't able to authorize your card. Please choose another way to pay."

I don't have any other cards.

Hello @ftreiger

Thank you for the post and welcome to our community forum!

Sorry to hear that you're not able to complete the payment using your card. It is possible that your card issuer is not accepting the authorization from PayPal. I recommend you to check with your card issuer to get this solved and try the payment again.

I hope this information helps
