Payment Methods by Site: What You Can Pay With, in Which Currency, and Where the Receipt Comes From

Quick answer: On the international site you pay by card (in an embedded checkout) or with PayPal, in US dollars; both work for credit packages and for memberships, and a membership renews through whichever you subscribed with. On the Chinese site you pay with Alipay, in yuan; memberships there do not renew automatically and simply end when the term does. A membership can be managed by only one provider at a time: if it renews through your card, plan changes go through the card, and the same for PayPal. The site’s order history on the billing page shows every order, its number and its state; the payment provider may also send its own confirmation.

Memberships and renewal

International: a card or PayPal subscription renews each cycle until you cancel; cancelling keeps benefits to the end of the paid term. Chinese site: a membership is a one-time payment for a term; when it ends you subscribe again if you like; there is nothing to cancel. Subscribe, Upgrade, Cancel.

One provider holds the subscription

If your membership renews through your card, upgrades and cancellation go through the card; PayPal is refused for plan changes with a message saying so, and the reverse. This keeps one renewal, not two. To switch providers, let the current term end, then subscribe with the other.

Unfinished payments

Closing the checkout leaves the order pending for a while; reopening within half an hour for the same package resumes the same order rather than opening a second one. A payment that needs your bank’s confirmation returns to the site to check the result before showing success; if it shows ‘still processing’, wait a moment and check the order history.

Receipts and invoices

The order history on the billing page lists every order with its number, amount, state and what it granted; PayPal also shows the payment in your PayPal account. For company invoices, contact support with the order number.
