I created a prepaid Visa card to sign up for an Azure account, but it turns out the Azure platform doesn't accept prepaid Visa cards. I'm based in Cameroon and it's difficult for me to get a credit card. I'm hoping to contact support to see if they can help me find a solution.

    Hi @Anderson Metsanou Nanfack ,

    Azure doesn't support virtual or prepaid cards. Credit cards are accepted and debit cards are accepted by most countries or regions.

    See the details from the following page.

    Hope this helps
