In the Ola app, as soon as I want to register a credit card, I get the error message "Failure! Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again."
I don't have any problems with Uber or other apps in other countries, like Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore etc.
I will have another trip in February. Do you usually pay cash (both uber or taxis)?
My Visa CC works fine, but it was registered with the Uber app in the US and regularly used long before I used it in India. I could not use this Visa card with Ola but it did accept my AmEx, probably because AmEx has robust 2FA consistent with 3D Secure.
