If you are not able to make payments by wire or <Gloss term="ACH" anchor="ach" />, or do not have a local bank in your enabled market, you can pay by credit card. To use a credit card for automatic payments, you need to register a card in the Megaport Portal. You can also register a card to automatically populate payment details for one-off payments.

<Note>
  Payment details do not appear if your account is managed by a partner. Contact your partner to arrange billing and payment.
</Note>

**To register a credit card with Megaport**

1. Visit the <Link href="https://portal.megaport.com">Megaport Portal</Link> and log in.

2. Choose Billing > Billing Markets.

3. In an enabled market, click the Make Payment icon.
   <Image src="/images/finance/makepayment.png" alt="Make payment" shadow={true} width={130} />

4. In the Payments tab, click **Register Card**.
   <Image src="/images/finance/register-card.png" alt="Make payment" shadow={true} width={650} />

5. Enter the Card Number, Expiry, and CVC.
   <Image src="/images/finance/card-details.png" alt="Make payment" shadow={true} width={650} />

6. Specify whether you want to enable automatic payments for this credit card.

7. Click **Register Card**.

If you select Automatic Payments, no further action is required. Payments will be processed on the 20th of each month for the outstanding balance on your account.

If you do not select Automatic Payments, you need to submit payments before your invoice due date. Follow the procedures in [Making a one-off credit card payment](#making-a-one-off-credit-card-payment).
