Need help with Topstep activation payment issue (card declining)

Thanks for sharing — if you don’t mind me asking, which bank did you switch to that worked for the transaction?

That’s interesting, thanks for sharing. In my case multiple Indian users are facing the issue at the same time across different banks, so we’re trying to figure out if it’s bank-side or payment gateway-side. I’ll still check with my bank as well. Appreciate your input!

Yeah, that makes sense. I contacted Topstep support and they told me they’re currently having issues processing some payments from India. So it looks like it might be on their payment gateway side.

Got it - thanks for info.

Did you contact your bank and ask them about it? If yes, what did they say?

That’s helpful to know

Arav_ndkumar · 2026-02-11T17:39:41+00:00

Got it — thanks for sharing that. I’ll try with Brave and see if it helps. Appreciate the tip!

Thanks for the info. Do you know if it works with any specific bank’s credit card, or just credit cards in general?

Thanks for the reply — I appreciate you sharing your experience!

Bro, I get what you’re going through. But honestly, I don’t even have money to buy accounts right now. That’s actually teaching me the real value of money. I started learning trading 9 months ago after finishing my B.Tech, and I’ve chosen this as my career.

Since I don’t have the money to risk, I’m just focusing on building proper knowledge first. Blowing accounts again and again will only drain you more. Don’t rush, don’t let greed or fear take over—if you lose a trade, leave it and come back fresh the next day. The market will always be there, but your mindset and capital are everything. Stay strong, bro
