Payment methods for International Premium Rate Numbers vary depending on the service provider and the country in which the service is offered. Typically, users are charged a premium rate for accessing content or services, such as adult entertainment, horoscopes, or voting in reality TV shows.

Payment methods commonly include premium SMS, where charges are added to the user's mobile phone bill, or premium rate phone calls, where the cost is deducted from the user's prepaid balance or added to their monthly phone bill. Some providers may also offer payment through credit or debit cards for online transactions.

These payment methods enable users to access premium content or services conveniently, albeit at a higher cost than standard rates.
