Supporting FFR is not an easy job

**TwilightPrincess** · 01-27-2007, 05:20 PM

I was wondering,

Since I don't have a credit card :O

Is there some way that I can subscribe with cash? I really want to subscribe to FFR. (double :O)

Any information would be helpful

My mall has gift cards that are actually prepaid credit cards

go buy a gift card for 3.50 and use it for FFR

If you tell me what store, I will go get one right now.

I live in the same state as you chicken. What mall is it!?

You should be able to buy them at a ton of stores - even in like a grocery store. They are just pre-paid credit cards through the main companies such as Visa. So, in essence, it kinda works like a debit card.

**Windscarredfaith** · 01-27-2007, 11:02 PM

Wow. I never knew about these. Interesting...

**DrugstoreCowboy** · 01-27-2007, 11:40 PM

in michigan, they sell these "credit cards" at banks. But honestly, go to a k-mart/walmart/meijer and just look for the section.

You can usually find them with all the gift cards for other stores and restaurants.

**Chromer** · 01-27-2007, 11:41 PM

Wait you guys mean the Visa and Mastercard Gift cards? or the Greendot Prepaid cards you can put cash on?

Branman123 · 01-27-2007, 11:48 PM

My bank allows you to purchase pre-paid *gift* cards. They are gift cards, but you do not need to purchase anything specific to use it. I think the only requirements to use it is to make sure the store accepts credit cards

**nestlekwik** · 01-28-2007, 11:08 AM

Yeah, they might be marked as "gift cards," but they're treated as a credit card during a POS transaction. There's an entire section of them at the grocery store I go to. It shouldn't be too hard to get a hold of one.

Would sending a Canadian money order be acceptable (i.e. to Synth's address)?

Pichu_XP · 01-28-2007, 11:39 AM

I think it's easier to just buy one of those instant credit cards.

**Kotarouchan** · 01-28-2007, 04:02 PM

Yeah, I acquired one, now I'm just lost... Someone tell me how to use it to subscribe

**MooMoo_Cowfreak** · 01-28-2007, 04:24 PM

Is there a certain age to get one.

I would think you would have to be 18+ unless it was a gift, and even then you would probably need parental supervision.

**Kotarouchan** · 01-28-2007, 04:36 PM

Okay... PayPal says "screw you" to Gift Credit Cards... so no subscribing from me for now

Pichu_XP · 01-28-2007, 04:59 PM

Well that sucks, I was just planning to get one too. Perhaps it'll work with another card?

UberMario · 01-28-2007, 05:08 PM

I'd suggest getting someone with a credit card willing to use their paypal for people who send them money orders of the same amount for their account.

Afrobean · 01-28-2007, 06:56 PM

Guys, I seem to recall these credit cards being brought up on a MapleStory forum. Basically, MapleStory added items that you had to buy with real money and people were upset because they didn't have a credit card. Then, some people suggested these credit cards... and well, you apparently have to set them up for online purchases on the credit card's website.

So, yeah, check out the credit card's website and see if you can set it up to use it for paypal.

Exag0n · 01-28-2007, 09:09 PM

Hmm, what about paying through a service such as Pay-By-Cash? That worked when I bought O2Jam songs...

I'll PM Synth about it.
