It doesn't even do me the respect of providing any sort of error
message, it just fails to move forward when adding either my business
AmEx or my personal Visa.  Apparently this is a known issue with the
app, with some people saying that it should work when you actually
land in Asia -- and others saying it didn't for them.

If it doesn't take my credit cards that's a huge negation of one of
the main reasons I find ride apps to be so useful.
