#I can’t add funds
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
You need to give us more information, it's too ambiguous.
What's the exact name, type of the card?
Who says it works? "is fine for two of my cards" - What does this means? Did you successfully add fund with the other 2 cards? what are those 2 cards?
My bad autocorrect it’s a “the perfect gift card” one visa one Mastercard they worked before and the receipt says it was activated also the two won’t add funds it says something about the card not working and to ask my issuer of the card about it
I did ask my issuer said it should be working but it’s not
I see. Have you tried removing the card from your payment method and then add it back?
I can’t even add it on to the payment method
Hmm so it isn't counted as a normal credit card?
That's weird, you sure you did it with the same type of card, same account before?
Yes multiple times
have you changed your account's region?
Hmm I can't explain this. I suggest contacting Nintendo customer support, they do have a better understanding of these issues.

Let me know if you figured out the reason. Maybe it's an important info for others to know as well.
Thanks it’s not a card issue it was working on Amazon but not on switch I’ll go check it out thanks again
Yep, I believe this is a Nintendo's side issue.
Hopefully but idk not working so far
It’s my switch none of my cards I have are working not even my credit card
Sometime it's a connection isue
You can try adding DNS to your Switch like below
HOW TO CHANGE DNS
• What's DNS? How can it help?
・ Domain Name System (DNS) is an internet system akin to an address book.
・ Using a better Public DNS service may improve connection speed.
・ Google's Public DNS service is often recommended, which is what we will use in this guide.
• How to change Nintendo Switch's DNS settings:
・ From Home Menu, navigate to System Settings ⚙️ > Internet > Internet Settings.
・ Select your network under Registered Networks.
・ Select Change Settings > DNS Settings > Change it to Manual.
・ Set these settings as follow:
- Primary DNS:
008.008.008.008 - Secondary DNS:
008.008.004.004

Or a better way to test is to add the credit card at a different time, on a different Wifi network
I read switch thing you can’t add prepaid cards in some cases
Apparently :/
But it did work before. So something changed.
And from time to time, we have report about payment issue due to server, internet connection and various other network causes.
Yea I think new changes :(
Found an alternative I ordered E shop codes on pc game supply it worked
