Entropay

[jumba]

ive signed up and loaded £10 onto the card. now is this card ok to pay fees with if i enter stealth name/addy on ebay or do i need to set up another card now so that the stealth name/addy on ebay match the stealth name on the card? basically, is it ok to use the initial card or is another one needed for fee paying?

[GTB]

you have to make the vcc the main funding option

way to pay fees

do one off payment to make sure it works for you

[jumba]

so i transfer funds from the initial vcc to the create new card vcc. it says i can load between 1.00 and 9.90, is this correct?

[GTB]

yes thats the one

[jumba]

got it, cheers gtb. is 9.90 enough or does it require the full £10 as obv they take away 0.10 in fees.

[GTB]

load it with whatever you need to pay the fees

they charge 10p for loading yes

make sure the vcc is opted as the method to pay ebay fees

do a one off payment

[jumba]

ok will give it ago and see if it goes through. fingers crossed!!

[GTB]

good luck

initial card i set up in entropay worked fine to verify pp. can i now use the same card to pay ebay fees or will a new card need to be created?i dont see any reason why it cant be used as this will be the first time it will be entered on ebay?? at the moment my pp and ebay arent linked and they may actually get suspicious if my pp has one card number but im paying the fees with another card number.

[GTB]

why have you not linked paypal to ebay

does the info match

[jumba]

because i havent sold anything yet, will need to after i list an item. im going to try the initial card and see what happens, its registered in my real name and addy but if they dont share this information then i dont see any issues. yes all the eb and pp info matches.

[GTB]

use the same card entropay for both pp and eb

when you list either opt to pay fees with the entropay cc

OR with paypal and have the credit card as your mainfunding option to pay fees etc

[GreenBean]

Complicated way to use entropay, very messy

[GTB]

ok just add the ep card to paypal

dont add to ebay

when prompted to pay fees,go with paypal

add the card to pp if you have not done already

bish,bash,bosh bobs your dads brother

[jumba]

added the ep card to pp, went thru fine. will add pp to fund fees, saves loading up the card everytime i want the fees paid. now it can just come out pp balance.

[GTB]

if not paypal balance the card

best to make sure there is always funds to pay them and also cover chargebacks

keep them happy,and you will benefit

[jumba]

cheers for the advice, will do just incase. gunna cover all possibilities!

[GTB]

ok mate no probs

best to get it right first time round

Any idea why I can't just use my bank debit card with a stealth account ? As people here seem to mention to use your legit details with Entropay, so isn't that the same as what will be on a bank debit card ? Or is it for multiple cards that Entropay becomes unique and useful ? Just wondered

As a layer of security with paypal it is recommended to not use your actual bank card ( it's in your REAL name).

Entropay works fine. The account gets made with real ID. But the virtual cards need have no name.It's the numbers paypal wants.

Thanks. So just to make sure I have this clear, I can use all real info when signing up with EP and it will still verify ok with stealth PP ?

Your real ID is needed to make an entropay account always.

The virtual card created with funds works fine for paypal. :D
