This is my standard credit card template so use what applies!
Amazon is weird on so many levels and this seems to work at least sometimes!
First, be sure it is an actual CREDIT Card. While Amazon claims that a Debit Card will work, that is seldom true! They WILL charge a Debit Card for initial fees but they will NOT take it on continuing basis most of the time despite their claims!
Put the card number into your BUYER side account first. Wait an hour (sometimes less) for the gerbils to work their way through the system and then put it in the SELLER side.
There was one recent response from a seller on a post that they DELETED the card that was on the buyer side and put the SAME card back in after a little bit and it fixed the problem. Amazon is a maze of broken links in their antiquated software.
Here are a couple threads where an OP says it worked.

Im dealing with the same problem. I thought it was because the card that wasn't working was also tied to the MEX and CAN market, but I changed them all to a new credit card and I'm still getting the same message.
Has anyone had any success with getting it reactivated? or would it be best to shut down store and create a new one?

Issue resolved! I believe it just took longer to refresh.

Hello @Seller_yVjdL62IBqbLb,
This is Josh from Amazon. Thank you for contacting our Forums!
I understand you're experiencing difficulties reactivating your account that has been set to 'inactive' due to inactivity. I can guide you through the process to resolve this issue:
- Go to your Seller Central and navigate to the Account Info page.
- Look for a banner at the top of the page that says "You currently have limited access to Amazon selling services."
- Under this banner, you should find information about the issue and a link that says "Reactivate Account."
- Click on this "Reactivate Account" link. This will take you to a page where you can update your information to start the reactivation process.
- Follow the steps on this page carefully. You may need to update or confirm various pieces of account information, even if you believe nothing has changed.
If you encounter any issues during this process or if the "Reactivate Account" link isn't visible, please contact Seller Support directly. They have the tools to investigate the specific details of your account and can provide personalized assistance to resolve this issue.
Best regards,
-Josh
