We re-enabled payments to Heroku in India! At the start of August, we resumed accepting credit and debit cards issued by Indian financial institutions.
From the engagement on our public roadmap, we know that there are many developers in India eager to get back on the platform. We want to address the work done to re-enable this functionality, and why Heroku stopped accepting payments from India in the first place.
We started by enabling 3D Secure (3DS) on our platform. 3D Secure is a protocol that prompts a user to use a dynamic authentication methods such as biometrics or token-based authentication to confirm their purchases.
