Hello WHT,

I like to use Pre-paid visa cards in chunks of $100 or $200. I am unsure by using this that I will get my paypal account verified? I had bad experience with linking my bank account, I was charged without my notice and then I needed to pay an overage fee of $66. I am asking for an alternative, I know paypal is widely used, but what else can I use that I can use my prepaid visa card? I am unsure that it will make my paypal Verified, so is there another payment processor I can use without problems, but that enough people use. If not, I am fine just directly inputting my credit card information to a host..

If I'm not mistaken, Paypal can issue virtual Mastercard cards, so you don't expose your card to everywhere you pay.

I tried this, but I must get verified first (add bank account) before I get a paypal card. I will try getting another prepaid visa and see if paypal accepts it and makes my account verified.
