Prepaid Visa Credit Card?

[goldensun87]

I need to know if I can use one of those Prepaid cards on a Clips4Sale site. If yes, will I still have to enter any personal info (name, address, etc.)? Will the Clips4Sale system auto-detect that the number is from a prepaid card? And most importantly, I should not receive any bill in the mail, right? I know this topic has been discussed before, but I need these specific questions answered before I put a bunch of money onto one of those cards. Also, a cashier at my local Walgreens told me that whatever amount I load up with, the whole amount has to be used at once, or any remainder will be lost. Is this true?

1st piece of advice. Before you put a bunch of money on a pre-paid CC try a $25.00 pre-paid CC to make sure you purchase the correct type. I have used pre-paid Visa and Mastercards for C4S purchases w/o any problems. I did not use my real name or address. I did use a legitimate email, even though it also was a fake name. a legit email is important in the event of a failed download. This did happen once but I contacted C4S from my email and received a new link. I used only a portion of the CC amount at a time and the full unused balance was available for the next purchase.

Caution: There are some new pre-paid CC/ Debit cards such as Green Dot. I Bought 1 of these and did have to register the credit card with my real name and SSN. It was like opening a bank account.

The ones you want are Visa or Mastercard "gift cards". They can be found in the check out lanes of Target and Walmart. They are for a fixed amount and not re-loadable.

I use a re-loadable Visa for all my online purchases, not just fetish related ones. With clips4sale I give a real address etc but always use another surname just incase. I have never had any bills mailed out to me, all statements are online and never use any company names etc that could be easily identified as "fetishy".

It might be different for your card but the one I have keeps the balance loaded so you can use it for other purchases, you dont lose it 🙂
