Can I use a prepaid credit card?

Just as the title states, I'd like to do an instant transaction to donate a bit and try out PoE but recently I've been more cautious with my credit card usage.

Can I use a prepaid mastercard to purchase early access?

Yes.
I used a reloadable( prepaid) Visa.
I just tried it again, and it said the card was declined. Is there a certain wait period after I activate the prepaid card?

I bought it about a half an hour ago.

Any thoughts on this to get me kick started would help. I'm kinda dieing to try out this game D:

Paypal?

Worked for me...

I believe you can transfer from almost any money holding account, but that's not something I've tested. I'm in Europe so not sure if that makes a difference.

Although I've upgraded twice once with partial pp credits and once thru debit card thru paypal and both have been pretty much instant.

Plus when I noticed paypal had my old address (me and my ex-partner) support when I mailed them were on it like a ***
well lets just say they sorted it super quick. :)

Yep, Paypal is my second option. :)

My initial question thought is about pre-loaded credit cards. The one I bought is a Mastercard with $25 on it, and I'm trying to use that to buy the $10 supporter to give the game a test run before I donate more to see this game become the best it can be.

I'm wondering if there's anything I'm missing here when I put in the preloaded credit cards information. I'm from Canada so I'm not sure if that makes a difference; being a different prepaid card company and all..

Much as I'd love to be able to, not my place to say.

What I can tell you is if you mail Samantha at support she sorted my issues out pdq :)

Problem solved!

Turns out there was an issue with the activation of the prepaid card. :)

PoE is downloading now, I'm excited to get started!

I'll keep that e-mail in mind, just in case there might be anything else that comes up later on.

Thanks for the help!

Cuz there's not enough available? I assure you, it works. I shop on line with mine, and it's how I payed for my beta access/support.

Prepaid cards are all the craze these days as several companies are putting them out there, but many people don't stick with one card too long. According to a recent study by the Philadelphia Federal Reserve, the standard prepaid credit card life expectancy is about six months, before customers move on. If you need short term financial assistance, get a payday loan.
