Hey everyone! ππ
Starting today (April 1st), some credit card payments on Pixiv FANBOX and Pixiv Commissions now require 3D Secure authentication due to new Japanese regulations. π΅βπ«π³
This isnβt Pixivβs decisionβitβs a government-mandated change! π―π΅βοΈ So if your payment isnβt going through, this might be why!
But donβt worry! If youβre having issues, hereβs what you can do! β¬οΈ
β 1. First, try your usual payment method!
π If you've already been using your card for FANBOX or Pixiv Commissions, it may still work without extra authentication! ποΈβ¨
π So before panicking, just try it out first!
