If you still encounter payment issues, you can use the Cryptomus payment option, which allows payments via USDT or credit card after creating an account. If you are unable to create an account with Cryptomus, it means that you are in a country where Cryptomus is unable to accept payments via a credit card.

Be sure to click on the "PayPal Buy Now" button to pay using your PayPal balance, rather than selecting "Debit or Credit Card", as the latter may result in similar payment issues to those described above. For guidance on paying with your PayPal balance, please refer to this short tutorial.
