         During card binding, Huawei Cloud collects a deposit of $1 USD (or an equivalent of $1 USD in other currencies calculated based on the exchange rate) from your credit card to verify the effectiveness of the card. This deposit will be returned to your credit card after the binding is successful. The specific return time is subject to the bank.

      2. On the displayed bank page, complete identity verification.
         • After you successfully bind the card, you get the post payment qualification, which means that you can spend first and then repay the money on Huawei Cloud.
           • Huawei Cloud will generate a bill on the third day of the next month, send the bill to you, and deduct the fee from your credit card.
           • If we have reasonable grounds to suspect that your account is at risk of falling into arrears, we have the right to immediately issue bills to you based on expenses incurred and deduct fees from your credit card.
         • If the card binding fails, the Historical Cards page is displayed, showing the reason in Result. In this case, you can bind the card again or submit a service ticket.
