I am publishing my first app on google play console. I have sign up for google play developer account on google play console. I have followed the step one of submitting basic developer profile details. Second step is to pay the service fee of $25. In this step, I have entered my credit card number of my Visa card and click on buy. After this I have got an error message that
Unable to accept the payment now. Your google pay account has been suspended. Learn more
When I have clicked on "Learn more", I have been asked to verify my account by proof of ID. I have uploaded my ID card and provided all the details required. On submission, they gave the message that
Your Email has been sent. Thank you for contacting us
Now 3 days have been passed and I have not get any verification email from google, nor I am getting ahead from the payment form, to create a developer account. Am I missing any thing, or am I doing something wrong? Kindly help me to create my google play developer account

Sorry if this is not the correct place to put up this question, but I'm unable to find an answer anywhere else.
Here's the problem.
I need to upgrade a client's account on Firebase from Spark plan to Blaze plan (pay as you go plan).
To do that I need to add a credit/debit card as a payment method to their account (billing account).
We have tried 3-4 different credit/debit cards but have failed.
I tried getting help from the help center but was not able to find it there.
At this link - https://console.cloud.google.com/support/chat - I tried to chat with someone to get help but here's what I got -
I am not the administrator on any billing account - Because I am unable to add a credit/debit card to create a billing account, hence I am not eligible for any help
I cannot get help on Phone because "You do not currently have access to technical phone support"
I am really frustrated by this, I have tried multiple cards, even borrowing other people's credit cards.
I am unable to find help from Google! Community support is the last option left! I just want to know what the issue is with my credit card? Why am I not able to add it as a payment method?
It was not registered for international payments initially, but I got that changed. I do not have any other ideas.
I really hope you guys can help me out.
UPDATE 1:
You must create a billing account first before you can add a card/payment options. Information about it can be found here: https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/manage-billing-account
I followed this link, this is something I've tried and this is the step where I am stuck.
Step 1: Identity verification - I am able to successfully complete this step by verifying mobile number and continuing.
Step 2: Verify payment method - this is the step I am stuck at. I have tried adding different cards, as mentioned above, and have faced different issues with different cards. One card did not have international payments enabled, I got that enabled but even then it doesn't work. It does not show any error. It proceeds to the bank's website for two step verification process, I enter the 'One Time Password" for the payment, the payment goes through and it comes back to the same "Payment Information Verification" page.

Instructions for creating a payment profile is here: https://support.google.com/paymentscenter/answer/9028746?ref_topic=9017383
It is important to set yourself up as the appropriate individual or business type.
Once that is done, you can link it to your account and your client's project if you have the permissions to do so.

SOLVED!!
Problem -> Since recurring payments are blocked, we cannot add cards and create billing account. And since I didn't have any billing account, I was not allowed the chat support. When I mailed regarding the same, received reply after 2-3 days stating that we look for some other payment methods(which do not exist as of now if you are in INDIA).
Solution -> Connect with some friend outside India where recurring payments are enabled(for eg. USA, singapore).
Ask them to login firebase from their laptop(do not use their card in India), add billing account and then google will put account on hold for 24-48hrs. go to cards -> add a backup card (India card) -> make it primary card and BOOOOM!!. In probably 24 hrs you can make payments from Indian credit/Debit card. Thank me Later!!
I am struggling to get a PayPal Sandbox up and running.
I am following the PayPal tutorial
Every time that I create an account, in both personal and business modes, the status is error and the profile notification says
Your sandbox account could not be created. Delete it and try again.
This even happens for the standard buyer/seller account which the Sandbox website creates when you register on the site.
Has anyone experienced something similar?
I am also just now working on setting up paypal integration. The developer portal's create account is just flat out broken is all i can conclude. go to sandbox.paypal.com and create an account, then in your developer portal under accounts instead of clicking create account, underneath it, their should be some text with a link in it to link a sandbox account by logging into it, click that. now that it's linked to your developer account you can duplicate the account to add funds to it.
Good luck getting it verified though, as i'm struggling to figure out how to actually link a bank account. Hopefully this gets you started.
Ok I had a Paypal Sandbox account a year ago. I am developing a new site for a client and when I try to Login it won't recognize my email address. I tried forgot my password > forgot password still nothing. So I guessed that maybe due to inactivity for such a long time they may have deleted my account. So then I try to Sign Up for a new one. I entered my details 3 times now and spent 6 hours trying to figure out what is the proper link to do this. Then I went to another Sandbox link which required me to entered a US Zip code and its a dead end. I am not even sure which Paypal account I signed up for those three times. No email nothing at all.
I am a Non US developer and the FAQ link for Non US developers just points to their REST API. Can someone please guide me to the proper Paypal Sandbox Setup for Non US developers including the proper sign up links please. And I know Stackoverflow does not like rants but from my experience dealing with Paypal, GTA 6 should make a satirical Paypal company in their next Game with Paypal Developer Rampage mode for the main protagonist who also happens to be a Developer.
EDIT: REST API does not include UK :(
1st, here is a link to the International Developer page (I tested it 1st to be sure it's a live link):
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/faq/#international-developer-questions
The developer site has been redesigned recently; you now sign in with the same credentials you use to sign into your PayPal Business account. Once you log in, import your existing Sandbox test accounts using the email address and password you used previously with the Sandbox. You can import only once. Please make sure you import to the PayPal account that you want to use for development.
When I check out the products I wish to purchase from my store it directs me to Paypal's page and I need to log in to my paypal account in order to purchase the items. However, every time I try logging in it says "Please check your email address and password and try again" which is very concerning since it works when I log in through Paypal's website.
It is not set to a test account. And I have tried using various paypal accounts.
Any advice?
WooCommerce is a great feature for Wordpress sites. I personally use the MagicPay gateway (see link if you want to check it out) with my online store, it integrates perfectly to my site and my customers don't have to have Paypal, they can just punch in their credit card numbers...
When I signed up they have a guy there who helped me with the integration.
Hope I helped!
i have some difficulties creating test account in sandbox. I found some similar topics but i still can't understand what to do.
For example this one "How to create test account with PayPal Payments Pro (Use to represent yourself as a merchant using Pro) option selected in sandbox?"
It says login in developers site, ok, done with that. Then "click on the link Preconfigured". What link? I can't find it. It just does not exist on that page and on any other that i searched.
Why i cannot login to https://www.sandbox.paypal.com with my seller account from sandbox, but it's possible to login using clients accounts (personal) from sandbox.
Do i need to apply to Paypal Payments Pro after i registered my sandbox account, and if i need why do i get "Service is not responding due to an internal error. Please contact customer service at +1-888-883-9770.". Also what social security number do i have to use(i just want to check integration with paypal, i dont have any bank accounts or social security numbers. i'm not even from usa)?
Do i need to accept licence agreement and where can i find it? According to this document https://ppmts.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/642/kw/10501 it's located somewhere inside the "Merchant Services" tab. After about an hour of search i found it in old interface. When i click it i'm being redirected to "My account".
Please, help me somebody. I'm sick and tired of that buggy, laggy and terribly designed paypal's site.
Once you are logged into developer.paypal.com, click "Applicatons", then click "Sandbox accounts". You see a blue button at the top of the page that says "Create Account". When you create a business account, you will automatically be signed up for PayPal Payments Pro.
You can then grab your API credentials by clicking the "Profile" link from developer.paypal.com.
Edit:
Updating answer with additional information about creating test accounts.
