Anyone having trouble paying digital games with credit card? I’m from Colombia and have 2 accounts. One in USA and one in Colombia. I used my credit card in both. But now, the Colombian store won’t allow me to buy games. And my credit card is from Colombia. The error code said that maybe that’s the problem, that my credit card is not from the region.

    There are databases of which BIN numbers (first 6 digits of the CC number) belong to which bank and region. Sometimes these are wrong.

    Or, Nintendo doesn’t allow the same CC for accounts in different countries nowadays?

    Yes! Having trouble for a few years now… It used to work fine for a couple of years then it suddeny stopped working. Contacting my bank and Nintendo didn’t solve the problem. My credicard works fine on Playstation though … Been using e-shop cards to fill the wallet ever since.

    It sounds like Nintendo is not accepting payments from Columbian banks maybe. I’m in a similar situation so i buy gift cards from play-asia.com. if you have another good website for gift cards please share
