If you’re a Nigerian developer, freelancer, or agency trying to pay for Contabo hosting or VPS, you already know the struggle. You click “Pay,” your heart skips, and boom, “card declined.” You try again, still nothing.
But here’s the good news: You’re not alone, and there’s a simple fix. This guide will show you how to pay for Contabo in Nigeria using EverTry, a virtual dollar card that works every time. Let’s break it down.
Why Is Your Naira Card Not Working on Contabo?
Contabo, a global provider of VPS, cloud servers, and hosting services, bills in USD or EUR. Unfortunately, most Nigerian banks have strict restrictions on international payments. Here’s what’s likely stopping your payment:
- Naira cards are no longer supported for most global transactions.
- Bank-issued dollar cards have low limits.
- You can’t fund USD cards easily due to FX scarcity.
- Even when you try, some payments are flagged or blocked entirely.
So if your bank card keeps failing, it’s not your fault — it’s the system.
