Credit / Debit Cards for Google YouTube Premium Hack

Could not find an open thread on YT Premium and threads regarding cards able to be used. So I'm making this post.

Instead of spamming all commenters from the YT Premium posts asking what card they use, perhaps it would be better to make a post and ask about the cards people used that were successful. Thanks in advance.

Also wanna add, that I tried creating a new google acc. but I can't go past the step of needing to provide the mobile number. You can't provide them with your Aus number, right?

Effort is proven to be much of a hassle haha. Also wanna add if I wanna add a family member do they need to be on the relevant country?

    • Fifth most popular :P

  • Commbank worked fine but it had minor transaction fees.

    Westpac Black working fine here.

  • I did it with an ANZ Visa, charged in Rupees from YT India and it worked perfectly fine.

  • Westpac debit card is working fine for me but with slight international fees

  • I use Wise.com

  • my cba world debit works fine

  • I bought the some crypto via crypto.com card the other day and was able to get it for almost free I'll say.

    • What do you mean almost?

  • If a CC is added into normal Google account and later its added to another account for YT Premium purposes using VPN (india) does google detect that ? i.e same credit card being used in two different region accounts

    • I have commbank CC with no international transaction charges, so ideally i want to use that but its already added into my normal Google Pay account ! TIA

  • Westpac Debit works fine - one of the VPN related tricks it actually does work for.

    Make more clear, i used Australia created gmail. Von was lat. A free one.
    Thanks

  • Up worked fine for me

  • As of this month, my payment did not go through. Was using ANZ card, tried to add ING debit card then tried Wise.ocm virtual card but I'm getting "This card can't be used" error when I try to add to the Argentina YT account. No solution yet..

    • Hey I have the same problem with Wise. I had 2 years of YouTube Premium with Wise MasterCard and my card just expired, I tried to add a new card, I cannot add the Wise Visa card, same as your message “this card can’t be added”
      Have you found a work around ?

      • No workaround unfortunately! YouTube standard with heaps of ads for the time being.. let me know if you find anything!

        • I could add my card as payment method to Youtube by adding my card through Google Wallet but then the status of the card stay as Not verified / Unverified in YouTube.
          So still not working

        • Alright, so I have contacted Google Support and they just confirmed my taught.

          It all because of VISA

          Here is what they said:

          I've checked our resources for you and it shows that due to an exchange rate decision made by the Argentina government, YouTube will not be able to process transactions in ARS from internationally-issued
          Visas credit cards.
          I'm afraid to say that the payment nor verification will not be approved under this cards.
          I recommend using a
          MasterCard, AMEX or Discover card instead.

          So if you use an Amex or MasterCard, shouldn’t have any issues

          • @Oli G: Wow thanks for the update! Damn i only have VISA cards but will look into something else. Appreciate it.

            • @sweepy: NP, I tried with a MasterCard and it’s working without issues
