Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Yes, I've recently received a confirmation that EntroPay will be shutting down. Therefore, we would need to find an alternative.

At this point in time, these are the available options.

1. Revolut (Best Option)
2. Payoneer (Second Best Option)
3. Abine
4. Loadoo
5. MyCard2Go

Now, since Revolut since to be the best option, has anyone tried to link their PayPal account using a different billing address on file?

I believe that if we all work together, we will conquer and defeat their system!:pop2:

Let's keep in touch and keep this thread accumulating with all the information that we find.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

1) Mycard2go have stopped registration
2) Loadoo website not even functioning
3) Revolut will lock you account and ask questions which not an issue
4) Not sure if abine works for EU customers

I will really miss entropay tbh it was the best around. I saw moneypolo but they stopped registration aswell.

Hello,

I am also currently searching for a good Entropay alternative.

So far here is what I found and I am in a process of testing them:

1. ecoPayz.com
2. jointoken.com
3. Yandex Money
4. Spendesk.com
5. lamdacardservices.com
6. Revolut for Business (Personal accounts is limited to 3 VCCs only, where Biz to 30)
7. Abine (Blur) Looks like a really good alternative to Entropay, but sadly they only accept US citizens
8. Privacy.com - US citizens only
9. Emburse.com - US citizens only

Please let us know if you try any of them.

Do you know if Revolut accepts a mismatch in the name and address?

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Mismatch when registering with them or if their cards has AVS?

They require account verification so, if you don't have the necessary documents I doubt you'll get verified.

And since their cards are Mastercard I think they also have AVS, since I haven't yet seen a Mastercard without AVS support.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

I've already submitted all the documents to Revolut. I meant, when trying to link your PayPal Stealth to your Revolut Virtual Card, will it be accepted if there is a different name and address?

I see you are from Malta and entropay use bank of valleta from malta only why dont you open account and check there prepaid card option and let us know

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

You've said Revolut is the "best option" but you don't know?

If you all work together then it eventually gets used and abused, better to keep any finds to yourself ;)

"I see you are from Malta and entropay use bank of valleta from malta only why dont you open account and check there prepaid card option and let us know"
EntroPay was an Ixaris brand and was closed due to Visa not extending licensing in Europe for gaming. Ixaris is launching Onvoy (similar to Revolut) now in the next few weeks.

"You've said Revolut is the "best option" but you don't know?"
All I want to know if Revolut accepts mismatch names and addresses when linking the VCC to PayPal.

"If you all work together then it eventually gets used and abused, better to keep any finds to yourself"
Yes, I agree but I mean sharing some findings since EntroPay is closing down and it doesn't seem we have a lot of options to choose from at this point in time.

"nettler and uk skrill also providing vcc."
Do you know if whether they allow name and addresses mismatch when linking the VCC to PayPal? And, since I'm from Malta, can I still make use of their services?

Thanks a lot for your help! :)

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Not sure if PayPal allows mismatch or not, but I am from Bulgaria and none of our banks here and their card has AVS support and I've used different card with different names without problem. I have few different card verified in PayPal (I have one card on my name in my PayPal and another one on a different name confirmed and verified as well), so my guess is that they do not do an AVS check as long as you are able to confirm that card. But this is only my opinion.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Can someone try to link their Revolut Virtual Card to PayPal with a mismatch address and let us know if it worked.

Or maybe you might know of another company that does work for people living in Europe?

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Neteller, skrill and Revolut are all AVS cards therefore require address to match to be added/confirmed.

Just tried to link a Revolute VCC to PP on a brand new stealth account and got an immediate request for Docs & limitation. Any advice guys?

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

That's the 2nd report its not working. I tried using one recently, it went fine but the code did not show, so was useless for confirming a card.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

The code shows after 2 days.

I successfully added and everything is fine < 12/18/18

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Check the "How to use it?" section... it's not a Visa or Mastercard, and the merchant has to specifically support it.

I thought it was weird that the introduction only stated that it works on "hundreds" of sites lol.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

Privacy.com is a good alternative but it only support US and currently I don't know any website where i can buy a US number (as sms verification) but even if i buy us number, i can't verify myself there.

Re: Alternatives to EntroPay Closing Down - Virtual Credit Card (VCC)
 

need SSN, only U.S.
