Turkish Amazon prime seems to not be accepting wise payments anymore. Submitted 2 payments and both times they didn't claim the payment, and my account is still suspended.
Any thoughts or alternatives?

Let us know if it goes ok please
Have you managed to sign up? I saw you need turkish ID
Just an update. I was able to sign up OK using my NZ passport.
When you get to the mobile OTP stage you'll probably get an error. If you email them they will sort it out for you.Haven't tested it with any services yet but presumably it should work fine.
I thought i was the only one and it didn't work on my revolut either. Does anyone any know simple workarounds? Cheers
I've never been able to use Wises for this.
And just in case no one has bothered trying (cause I didn't for ages) the "one location only" warning seems to have been taken off Turkey (after being put on five or so months ago). I hadn't been using it, but was still paying it for my parents to use. Happened to try a couple of weeks ago with zero issues. And a few times since.
What have you been using to buy turkish amazon?
I have the same problem. It initially accepts, initiates a payment from Wise, then cancels it (so my Wise gets refunded). Any workarounds appreciated.
Same issue here… Tried adding a TRY balance to my Amazon account. Wasn't able to use that for payment. Wouldn't work with any of my NZ cards or Revolut.
I signed up for an Ininal card (only Turkish language on the Android app but English on the Apple app, as far as I know) and had to use Revolut to top it up and that got me back up and running.
I tried multiple other cards/strategies, but nothing else worked. I did have some trouble using a VPN to convince YouTube that I was in Turkey, so ended up signing up for YouTube Music first, then upgrading to YouTube Premium.
Edit: This also worked for Amazon Prime.
I'm signing up for Inial:
