Good question!  Prepaid credit cards don't generally play well with PayPal as they don't have all the security features, like address verification, that normal cards have.  Due to this we would require them to go through an additional process we call Link and Confirm where we charge the card $1.95, but refund once the process is completed, and in the description of the charge on your statment there is a 4 digit code to provide to us.  Once that is completed you will be able to use the card.

 

Have a good one.
