Thieves

Don't use them; they are thieves. I had a card in euros, but in April their euro cards stopped working. I had money in the account; they said they would transfer the funds to a general balance so I could use them with other cards, but three months have passed and I still can't access my money.
I sent many times email to support, moths waiting my money, and the only answer is, sorry for delay we are on it.
Very bad service.

Palau Digital ID not working

Registering with Palau Digital residency Citizenship card does NOT work for KYC

Please add support for Palau ID soon for KYC

Reply from Upay Technology Limited

Thank you for your feedback, and we understand the frustration this may cause.

At the moment, Palau Digital ID support for KYC may be limited due to compliance, issuer, or regional verification requirements. Our compliance and verification systems currently support specific document types and jurisdictions, and some digital residency IDs may still be under review for full compatibility.

We appreciate your suggestion regarding Palau ID support, and the team is actively reviewing additional identity verification options to improve accessibility for users globally.

If you'd like, please contact support@upay.com with your registered email address and more details about the document you attempted to use, and the team can check whether there are alternative verification options available for your account.

Thank you for your patience and feedback.

The UPAY identifies Normal people as PEP

I tried to register and apply for both Virtual and Physical Card, but the KYC process of Upay has a bug. It says, I'm a PEP, but I'm not. The third-party deployed KYC is not reliable since I'm not a PEP for sure. It should give a second chance to do KYC, but it doesn't. No representation chance is a BIG BIG Reg Flag for customers to choose the product and UPAY because it doesn't listen.

Hi Rajiv,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how concerning this situation must be.

To clarify, PEP flags are part of strict compliance and regulatory requirements tied to our KYC process and are typically determined through third party verification systems. In some cases, false positives can occur due to similarities in names, profiles, or incomplete data matching.

That said, you should not be left without a resolution. We sincerely apologize if you were not given a clear opportunity to reverify your details.

Please reach out to our support team at support@upay.com with your registration details so we can escalate your case for a manual review and assist you with completing your KYC properly.

Your feedback is important, and we are continuously working to improve both our verification process and user experience.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Disappointing Experience Misleading Apple Pay Promotion and No Refund Option

My experience with UPay was extremely disappointing.
They promote their service as supporting Apple Pay, but after purchasing the card, I discovered that it cannot be added to Apple Pay as expected. There was no clear warning before the purchase, and there is no refund option once you realize the issue.
If I had known this beforehand, I would not have spent my money. Honestly, even buying a meal at McDonald’s would have been a better use of it.
I wish there were an option to give zero stars, because even one star feels too generous for this experience.

Hi Mohamed,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must have been.

To clarify, Apple Pay is not yet fully live across all UPay cards and regions. It is currently supported only for eligible cards in approved regions, and availability depends on factors like issuer requirements, regional regulations, and ongoing integration updates.

For the UPay Premier Card, Apple Pay testing has already been completed, and we are currently awaiting Apple’s official announcement before full public rollout.

We acknowledge that this may not have been clearly communicated prior to your purchase, and we sincerely apologize for any confusion this caused.

Regarding refunds, transactions and card purchases are generally non refundable once processed, but we would still like to review your case and see how we can assist.

Please reach out to our support team at support@upay.com
, and we will be happy to look into this for you.

Thank you for your feedback. It helps us improve both our communication and user experience.

The worst service

The worst service. Their website lists Apple Pay, which hasn't worked for six months, and every time they lie that they are fixing it. Now even their card has stopped working, and they are lying again that they are fixing it, asking how long I have to wait, they giving different answers.
A fraudulent service where even cards don't work.

UPD.
These scammers have frozen my money and are asking for confirmation of all my documents, address, employment, bank accounts, and expenses.
Never contact them.

Hello,

We regret the inconvenience you’ve experienced and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Apple Pay is currently supported only for eligible cards and regions, and while testing for our Premier Card has been completed, public availability is subject to Apple’s official rollout.

Card service interruptions or account restrictions may occur due to compliance reviews, risk controls, or program-level requirements from our issuing partners. In such cases, additional verification may be required in line with regulatory obligations. Any restriction is temporary and applied solely to complete the review.

Please contact support@upay.com with your ticket reference so our team can review your account and provide clear guidance.

UPAY TECHNOLOGY LTD. scammers

UPAY TECHNOLOGY LTD. These guys are straight-up scammers. Never download their app and don’t even think about topping it up.
First they’ll charge you a hundred “for the card,” then tell you it’ll take a month or more to “process.”
When the card finally shows up, it’ll work for like a month and then get randomly cancelled.

But the real nightmare is this - they keep all the money that gets charged, even if the merchant cancels the transaction or issues a refund.
They either have zero connection to a real card issuer, or they’re just pocketing every refund that comes back.

Hello,

We take allegations of this nature very seriously and would like to clarify the concerns raised. Card issuance fees, where applicable, are disclosed during the application process and are related to card production, compliance checks, and issuing-partner requirements. Processing timelines may vary depending on verification and card program constraints.

Card cancellations or service interruptions can occur due to compliance reviews, risk controls, or program-level changes mandated by our issuing partners. These actions are not arbitrary and are taken to meet regulatory and security obligations.

Regarding refunds, UPay does not pocket customer funds. Refunds are processed once the merchant completes settlement through their acquiring bank, and timelines are governed by card networks and merchants. Delays may occur while transactions are pending, under review, or undergoing chargeback procedures.

We encourage you to contact support@upay.com with your transaction details so our team can review your case and provide accurate clarification.

Sincerely,
UPay Support Team

This company is very, very bad

This company is very, very bad. Terrible customer support. Alway blame the customer, even it is there fault. Do not tell you only USDT is working, charge 1000% network fee. If you want to withdraw BTC they charge 100USD, even the network fee is 1 USD. Refuse to give you money back if you where charge twice. They lie all the time. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY !!!!!

You charge fees on declined transactions, duplicate transactions and as well on refunded transaction. So the total fees on one declined or refunded transaction where almost 6 %. even the transaction was declined. Ridicules.

Hello,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate the opportunity to clarify the concerns raised.

UPay’s fees are disclosed in our Help Center, Cardholder Agreement, and within the app where applicable. Charges may include top-up or deposit fees, FX conversion fees (depending on currency and region), authorization fees, ATM withdrawal fees, and network-related fees. In some cases, transactions may appear higher due to cross-border processing, card network exchange rate differences, dynamic currency conversion applied by merchants, or ATM and quasi-cash classifications.

If a transaction appears to have been charged incorrectly or more than once, this is not intentional and requires review to determine whether the charge is pending, duplicated, or subject to reversal under card-network rules.

We acknowledge your feedback regarding customer support and are actively working to improve clarity and resolution handling. Please contact support@upay.com with your transaction details so our team can review your case and provide accurate clarification.

Hello,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and would like to clarify the points raised. Apple Pay is currently available only for eligible cards and regions, and availability may be limited due to card program transitions, technical integration updates, or compliance requirements.

Withdrawal or transaction restrictions may also occur if an account is undergoing a compliance or security review, or if certain conditions required for processing have not yet been completed. These reviews are part of regulatory obligations and are not applied arbitrarily.

Save yourself the trouble and find a better alternative.

My experience with UPay’s virtual card has been nothing short of frustrating. From the moment I got the card, I couldn’t complete a single transaction—no matter where I tried to use it. I followed all their instructions and even reached out to customer support multiple times, but every attempt was declined due to their so-called “Quasi-Cash Merchant Policy,” even though I was just making ordinary purchases.

To make matters worse, I recently received a notice stating that the card will no longer support transactions or top-ups after March 21, 2025. That basically renders it completely useless. Why even issue a card that can’t be used in the first place?

I’ve already requested a full refund of my remaining balance and asked to freeze the card. There’s no point holding onto a service that doesn’t work. The lack of transparency, poor user experience, and total waste of time have left me deeply disappointed.

If you’re looking for a reliable virtual card, I strongly advise you to steer clear of UPay. Save yourself the trouble and find a better alternative.

Hello,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate the opportunity to clarify.

Some card transactions may be declined due to merchant category restrictions, including quasi-cash merchant classifications, as well as network authorization rules and compliance requirements. These controls are applied in line with card-network and regulatory obligations and can affect certain merchants even when a transaction appears to be a standard purchase.

Regarding the March 21, 2025 card program changes, affected users were notified via in-app message and/or email. Where applicable, migration instructions or replacement options were provided, and users who require clarification are encouraged to contact support.

Refunds are processed in accordance with card-network rules and settlement status. Where a merchant initiates a return, refunds are handled through the acquiring bank and may be subject to standard review timelines.

Please contact support@upay.com with your account details so our team can review your case and provide accurate guidance on available options.

I had a terrible experience with UPay's…

I had a terrible experience with UPay's virtual card. From the very beginning, I wasn't able to complete a single transaction, no matter where I tried to use it. Despite following their guidelines and even reaching out to customer support, my transactions kept getting declined due to their "Quasi-Cash Merchant" policy, even though I was just trying to use the card normally.

To make things worse, I recently received a notification that the card will no longer support transactions or top-ups after March 21, 2025. This means my card is now practically useless! Why issue a card in the first place if it can’t be used?

I requested a full refund of my remaining balance and for the card to be suspended, as there is no point in keeping a service that doesn’t work. I’m extremely disappointed with the lack of transparency, poor user experience, and wasted time dealing with this company.

I do not recommend UPay if you're looking for a reliable virtual card. Avoid the frustration and find
