    Below are the only accepted means of payment.
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/

    WordPress.com uses PayPal as the payment processor, and as such, can only accept payment from countries they support: https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/

    If for whatever reason, they have chosen to block payment from your country, you will not be able to purchase an upgrade here unless you have a source of payment outside of your country. Note: You can buy a prepaid credit card from an approved country.

    In addition to major credit cards Mastercard, VISA, American Express, Discover, and PayPal https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/ WordPress.com can accept echecks and some debit cards.

    The debit card must have a VISA or Mastercard symbol on it, and should work just like a credit card when selecting the VISA or Mastercard option on the payment form, even though it’s a debit card.

    More about echecks here:

    Thank you, now all I have to figure out is how to actually speak to wordpress’ mysterious, invisible staff.

  • Hi there,

    What exactly are you trying to do? It’s not possible to help you if we don’t know what your question is :)

    We actually made a change just this week that we no longer exclusively use PayPal as payment processor, so people from more countries should now be able to pay via debit or credit card. This change is so new the docs don’t even reflect it yet – I’m just about to update that so the information is up to date but thought I’d mention it to you as well.

    Thanks for the update and for updating the support doc too. I shall bookmark this and endeavor to remember this change.

    Hi, I’m running a little slow. Basically I run a political blog, that’s not exactly politically correct, but there are a lot of followers. Some have been asking how to contribute to the blog. There is a Paypal Donation button that I’m trying to install on the frontpage, all pages and all posts. I would love it to be automatic so that I don’t have to add the code every posting. I also tried to and can’t figure it out, I suck at code etc… So I guess that my question would be how to add the paypal donation button on all pages, posts and homepage of my blog. Thank you.

  • There is a Paypal Donation button that I’m trying to install on the frontpage, all pages and all posts. I would love it to be automatic so that I don’t have to add the code every posting.

    There is no way to do this automatically. The PayPal button is not a WordPress.com feature. In reality it’s nothing more than a picture of a button that links to the PayPal site. The only way to get that link is directly from PayPal, and you need to add it every place on your site where you want it to appear.

    I would suggest you just add it in a text widget on your site’s sidebar or footer. That way it will always be visible no matter which post or page on your site people are looking at.

    You can find our instructions how to get the link from PayPal and how to add it to your site at the links below. It involves code, but you really only need to copy and paste it. You don’t need to program anything.
