Need a Turkish IP for a client compliance project. Every provider I've contacted—Contabo, OVHcloud, local shops—rejects foreign cards or wants a Turkish tax number I can't get. The graphs don't lie: my current latency from Frankfurt to their endpoints is 65ms, and the client needs under 20ms.

Tried:

  • Wise card → rejected by 4 providers
  • Revolut → 3DS fails on every bank redirect
  • PayPal → "not available for this region"

Anyone found a reseller or payment proxy that actually works long-term? Not interested in gray-market routing; need clean IP, proper WHOIS. Status page uptime is non-negotiable—this client checks my status page more than I do.

Regards
