Update Your Credit Card

Overview

The most recent credit card used to pay for the account is automatically saved as the default payment method for any future purchase or renewal unless the option to save the credit card has been unchecked during the checkout process. You can update this card at any time through the 'account' menu in your control panel. Bluehost accepts American Express, Discover (USD), Master Card, and Visa.

In order to update the credit card on file, the steps will vary depending on which interface your account uses.

Note: The Advanced tab will load your cPanel. Legacy accounts will feature a horizontal navigation bar at the top of the screen. In contrast, Bluerock account users will see a vertical navigation menu on the left-hand side of the screen. 

Important: If you still are unsure whether the account uses the Legacy or Bluerock interface, please see Bluerock vs. Legacy to determine which steps to follow.
