Answer
You can add funds to your account using one of the following payment methods:
- Debit Card or Credit Card (Visa or MasterCard only)*
- PayPal
- Bank Transfer
*Pre-paid credit cards are not supported.
Credit Cards
We accept Visa and Mastercard for debit or credit card payments. All payments are processed by Braintree, our Payment Service Provider (PSP). You can manage your card details and pay from the Billing & Payments page.
Credit card payments are only available in some countries. Pre-paid cards are not supported.
PayPal
If you select PayPal as your payment method, you will be redirected to the PayPal website to authorize your payment. Once your payment is successful, you can view the transaction from the Payment History on the Billing and Payments page in the Dashboard.
Make sure you use the same address your PayPal account is registered to for the billing information when making your first payment.
Auto-Reload
The auto-reload feature will automatically top up your account when your balance gets too low. Auto-reload can only be used with PayPal and credit or debit cards.
You can turn on auto-reload after a successful payment, either on the Payment Completed page or on the Billing & Payments page. The payment method must be saved and an initial successful payment is required to enable auto-reload.
Bank Transfers
One of the easiest ways to make payments of any amount is by bank transfer. Bank Transfers require a minimum amount of 200 Euros. Your account is credited, and an invoice will be sent to you once the funds have cleared into the Vonage API account. Bank transfers may take 3 to 5 days to arrive in our bank accounts once it is remitted.
Other Payment Methods
Additional payment methods like American Express (AMEX) are not supported via our direct payment provider but may be possible via PayPal, depending on your country.
