  Hey there! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble authorizing your card on Coinbase. As a representative from BYDFi, I can assure you that this issue is not specific to Coinbase and can happen on any cryptocurrency exchange. One common solution is to try using a different card or payment method. If that doesn't work, it's possible that your card issuer has blocked the transaction. Give them a call and ask if they can whitelist Coinbase transactions for you. Good luck!
