My Question or Issue
How can an international student pay a Premium subscription if is credit card is from other country?
Hey @masousa, and welcome to the community.
Hope you're doing great!
Please keep in mind that the country payment method is on must match the country that is on your account. If it isn't, you won't be able to pay for Premium.
You can learn more about Payment methods by checking out this support article.
Have a nice day 🙂
Thank you. However, it doesn’t make sence not to accept an internstional card that is used to shop in the college and everywhere in the other country. Students may stay in other country for 3 or more years ans won’t get a local payment method just for this purpose...

Thanks for the response.
You can still travel with a Premium account (Student Discount included), so there shouldn't be an issue as long as the countries match once you've upgraded to Premium. You'll just need a good and stable internet connection, and not be offline for more than 30 days to refresh the subscription status with your device.
I hope this helps. If you need help with anything else, just let me know 🙂
Hey @masousa.
With a Premium subscription you can go abroad for as long as you like. It's important however that you subscribe before you leave abroad.
If he's now a Free user in the US, he'll have to use a US payment method if he wants to upgrade to Premium. This is due to music licensing that varies per country. Alternatively he can purchase prepaid time in a physical store but this can't be combined with Student Discount. More information about prepaid time can be found here.
Let us know if you have further questions. Have a nice day.
