    Hello.
    I’m on a free WordPress plan but I would like to upgrade to the personal plan soon. However my concerns are that I am in Swaziland in Africa and I have no credit card. But I do have a student account, sponsored by my parents. Is it possible to use that account for the monthly payments.
    And also, what are the steps to take to monetize my blog?
    Thank You.

    Hi there,

    With a few exceptions depending on the country you’re from, we only accept major credit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay. For information on the forms of payment we do accept, please visit:

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/#additional-local-payment-methods Hi there,

    Currently, we do not have a monthly subscription option for our upgrades, only a yearly option. You can find out more information regarding our plans here:

    Also, to clarify, all of our subscriptions are annual, not monthly.

    And also, what are the steps to take to monetize my blog?

    We do have an advertising program called WordAds, which you can read more about here:

    WordAds

    As you grow traffic on your site, you can generate income via the ads placed on your site.

    Here is our support page on the various ways you can monetize your blog:

    We also have a new recurring payment feature, where viewers can subscribe to your blog and contribute monthly/yearly payments to you:

    Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

    Thanks,
