Prepaid visa's are starting to get rejected more and more... We need to start discussing this here.

The way I see it, none of these are worth the trouble or fees anymore. I had two perfectly fine experiences w/ giftcards.com when they allowed a $500 virtual card for a flat $2 processing fee, and later a physical card loaded w/ $500 for a $6.95 shipping/handling fee. Later, I tried simon.com for $300 + $2 fee and that was a disaster. Ultimately got the order canceled so no harm done, but was still frustrating. Now, it's all this "what works and what doesn't?", and the most reliable cards are what, the Walgreen's ones that have a $4.95 fee for only $100? Not worth my time.

I haven't been comfortable having more than $1.5k in any poker account since all the NETeller crap went down, so whenever I reached $1.5k+, I'd cash out $1k+ and have only $500 left (back in the Stars courier days for checks >$1k). Variance was going to bust me w/ the limits I played, but I knew that going in and was willing to do it over and over again w/ the minimal fees (wound up only being two rounds). Now it's just ridiculous and I'll resort to paying a friend some vig + cash/check in return for a p2p transfer.

Call the way I handled it whatever you want, but after going back to B&M my last 3 sessions, I realize just how easy those games can be in comparison.

Just got a few all access gift cards this weekend and to my surprise all of them have been declined everytime on both stars, FT, basically anywhere I try. Which is shock as I've been using these from time to time for a while now... anybody know whats up and/or which ones work or are they all being rejected now?
04-16-2007 , 06:02 PM

04-16-2007 , 06:05 PM

04-16-2007 , 06:57 PM
Yes, registered them and everything
04-16-2007 , 08:02 PM

04-16-2007 , 09:01 PM
can i buy a regular visa gift card at my supermarket and use it on FTP?
04-16-2007 , 11:54 PM
PokerStars is easy...its called Paytru, a wells fargo debit card, or mailing them a money order.

The question is how is everyone loading on Fulltilt?
04-16-2007 , 11:55 PM
www.www-card.com has been working fine on ftp but not on stars
04-17-2007 , 12:13 AM
yeah that didnt work for me...maybe cuz its a bank of america check/visa card im trying to load with. BofA doesnt seem to work just about anywhere.

You only can get the paytru account through the pokerstars cashier. Its the visa debit thingamajig.

I see Stars has a prepaid visa link in their cashier, is this the same think this thread is about? I clicked on it and it wants me to apply, asking for my ssn and such.

I just wanted to let everyone here know that WWW-Card is really easy and works on Pokerstars (Haven't tried any other sites). You pay via a debit/credit card, and you have your virtual card # instantly, and it tells you that you can use it in 10 minutes. If you try to use it before 10 minutes on Stars, you get denied, but if you wait 10 mins, its approved.

The max you can load is like 200-300. You can do more than one. I think its like 2 every 24 hours or something. There is a fixed fee of $2.75 each.
They also accept giftcards.com prepaid visas (for those of you who bought them but then got screwed because they no longer allow gambling transactions.)

I've used them ~4 times, very fast and easy:

(No, this isn't spam, and no, I do not work for them, nor am I an affiliate, just helping everyone out here).

How will PS handle withdrawals with this card?
