Apple has discontinued accepting debit and credit card payments in India.

Apple has stopped taking credit cards issued by Indian banks for subscriptions and purchases. Apple will also not accept credit cards issued by Indian banks as payment for ad campaigns on Apple Search. From June 1st, all campaigns will be suspended.

The shift is due to the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) new auto-debit rules, which went into effect last year and are interrupting recurring online transactions.

“Due to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) rules, Apple Search Ads will soon no longer accept payments from credit cards issued by banks in India,” Apple said in an email to users.

“All campaigns using a credit card issued by an Indian bank will be put on hold beginning June 1st,” the business added. You can use a credit card issued by a bank outside of India to prevent a pause in showing adverts to your consumers. Go to the Billing tab in your account settings to change your payment method.”
