Yesterday, I made two attempts to purchase the upgrade to PortraitPro 15, using Anthropic's WorldPay service. But WorldPay rejected my valid credit/debit card twice, asking me to use another card instead.
So I used PayPal to make the purchase, using the same card, which went without problems.
In addition to WorldPay's two rejections of my valid card, the attempts triggered fraud alerts at the bank that issued my card, which I had to verify that they were false alerts with my bank.
This is just a fyi for Anthropics to let them know that WorldPay, for reasons unknown to the purchaser, can present unnecessary problems for their customers. In my case, it's good that they offered PayPal as an alternative.
