prepaid card for paypal and ebay
 

hi,
i will use prepaid card for ebay stealth and paypal of course different for each
and all these cards comes on my real address, should i change address before adding them to accounts?

You can use the same card for PP and EB.

Just change the name on the card, is what i do, and what i have read from others.

Entropay is your best option.

For the first EB PP you create one new card with new name, then keep doing that for every new account you create.

To do this, use the transfer funds from one account to a new account!

Try entropay virtual cards.... you don't have to worry about changing addresses.

In answer to your question it depends what specific card (s) you are using.

can you explain
"To do this, use the transfer funds from one account to a new account"
i can't witdraw to my bunk account?
how to pay ebay fees with vcc?

entropay
 

When you sign up to entropay. After you have created your initial card,there are two options, Create a new EntroPay Virtual Card< you dont want that> you want to transfer funds, then transfer to a new card.


Hope that helps

i have read entropay doesn't work?
and can i add my real bank account for withdraw money is it possible, because I have read if not same details no?

Entropay doesn't work for US users. It is fine for the UK.

And it is fine to add your bank account. The names don't need to match (except for maybe Lloyds TSB) - that is stated all over the forums.

You seem to be getting confused.

i am using lloyds...

but i will try with barclay hope it will work

On a side note. CJ can you use entropay as your main bank source? not just to have a CC on file, but transfer PP funds to entropay account from PP like you would transfer it to say TSB etc?

No not with PayPal UK. Some countries allow withdrawal to cards but in the UK it has to be a bank account, with DD facility for verification.

DD
 

Forgot about the DD. :D

Always better to cancel the DD after the deposits have been made though!

Is not essential to keep the DD on goinng

If you do that your bank will notify paypal of the cancelled DD and you will no longer be verified.

You only want to be cancelling the instuction when you no longer have any use for the account.

I have always been a little puzzled by the Entropay advice. I have a stealth account for buying and selling and used a bank account (under my name). ebay have my stealth name but the bank account number and sort code. Am I missing something?

You would use the Entropay virtual visa card to open your Paypal account.

The benefit of entropay is you can open the entropay account with your real details but use it to create a stealth paypal account with completely different details. You can also create sub cards for making multiple PP accounts - very easy and convenient.

You wouldn't be able to do that so easily with a real debit/credit card (i.e. one issued by your bank) as your name and portions of the address would need to match up, so not very stealth like.

Understood, thanks.
