1. Large-scale failure of seller's credit card
Last week, many sellers received a warning from Amazon that the credit card information was incorrect and needed to update the credit card information.
Most of the large-scale failures of credit cards involve the Bank of China and Bank of Communications, and these cards are in a normal state. Many sellers tried to update the information as required, but the results showed that they failed.
According to analysis by industry insiders, there may be three reasons: bank-related, ID card or credit card invalidation, and Amazon BUG. Sellers can refer to these two methods to deal with the problem of card failure: Method one, re-upload the credit card information; Method two, change to a new credit card.
