Is anyone aware of problems with the payment system for Pixiv Requests?
I was hoping to set up my next round of commission requests but for some reason the process keeps looping me back to square one and the requests don't register. Whenever I try to confirm final payment I am taken back to the artist's request tab instead of my requests list, no error messages it just sends me back to the beginning.
I have confirmed it is not a problem with my card as it works fine on Booth and Fanbox. Also called my bank and made sure there were no automatic blocks on the transactions. Looks like Pixiv isn't sending the charge request to my card perhaps causing the request process to time out and send me back.
It looks like users in Japan are able to make requests just fine so I'm wondering if this may be some issue with the server handling overseas payments.
I have thought about using Skeb in the past but kept putting it off since I don't have a Twitter account to use with it and then Pixiv Requests came by.
I finally got a message out of Pixiv but it doesn't tell me anything. They simply say "Payment failed for some reason, we don't know why. Try a different card and see if that works". The same card I have been using all this time and never had any problems until now, the same card that still works fine on Fanbox and Booth.
I guess I'll have to start considering Skeb again but for now I am too burnt out from a bunch of irl issues to give it much thought.
