payment question

[jfriedrich]

Hi Guys,

I just have a quick question regarding payment for purchases. I recently received a pre-paid mastercard and would like to use it to make a couple purchases.I noticed this was discussed here once before but it didn't appear an answer was found. I do have a paypal account, would i just add this pre-paid card to my pay-pal account and go from there?

Thanks for any help/suggestions,
Jordan

If paypal allows you to use it and it goes thru, then yes it could be used. You would add it to your paypal cards list I would imagine for it to be a valid form of payment.

Thanks, I will give it a go and report back.

I believe that pre-paid cards, and pre loaded gift cards, have an automatic monthly fee of @ $4.95 that is deducted by the company, every month, so a pre-paid card can self deplete itself in a couple months time, and have no money left on it ... some pre-paid cards do not allow worldwide transactions

It didn't go through, but no worries. Made my purchase the conventional way through PayPal. I'm looking forward to American intermodal.

thanks guys,
Jordan
