Is there a way to use an Indian card to pay on australia websites?

GT710 Connoisseur

I am from India and i want to get a ps4 for my cousin who lives in Australia. I don't really have any contacts there, and i want to send it as a surprise. Every website I try, the card is invalid. I have tried credit and debit cards. Is there a service which I can use to pay in aus websites? Like a global currency convertor? Please help

In general, it really depends on whether the store: Can process international payment cards OR partners with specific payment providers used by your region (like China has Alipay).

 

Also, it is possible that your payment method will deny request for payment outside of your country, unless they allow you to declare a country as okay to pay.

 

For example: I have a reloadable debit card that didn't let me buy PC games from Fanatical because they based in a country within Europe. So I added an exception for their specific country to my card, and now I can buy games from Fanatical.

Contact your bank or whomever you got those cards from. By default, to limit credit card theft, payments are locked to the country your home residence is at. But you can allow payments to other countries. I can do it per card and from my banking app. But if you don't have those options available, then contacting your bank is the only way. One of my cards refused to work internationally like first year from when I got it. Stores list the payment methods they accept too.

 

Also, if it's bigger payment, like $250, your bank might ask for extra confirmation.
