Blacklisted Countries of VCC Acceptance
Unfortunately, not all countries accept Virtual Cards. The list at the bottom of this page displays all blacklisted countries - any merchant suppliers attempting to process our Virtual Cards within these countries will be declined. Please understand this is out of ConnexPay's control. Blacklisting is done via a combination of OFAC and Bank restrictions.
You can see that a transaction was declined based on the country of acceptance when you view the VCC transaction history. You’ll see “Transactions not allowed from this country” (example below).
NOTE:
Issuing the Global VCC product will not solve this and allow the VCC to be approved - it would still be declined at one of these countries.
Currently, geographic sanctions have been imposed across various jurisdictions including:
- Cuba
- Iran
- Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea)
- Russia
- Sudan - Darfur region
- Syria
- Ukraine regions of Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk
