Okay, thank you. I'll check these out. Also, I have two kind of a random but still related questions. Do you know if I'd be able to use PayPal exclusively with prepaid credit cards? And, do you know if I can use both gift cards and prepaid credit cards through VPNs?

[–] Icytrees@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No prob. VPNs shouldn't affect how you can pay. Canadian banks all support e-transfers so we don't use a lot of cash apps, I've never used paypal.

I was able to use prepaid cards everywhere. They should work just like a Visa or Mastercard.

Okay, thanks again. The reason I asked about PayPal was because there are some websites that I want to be able to purchase things but PayPal is the only option they accept for at least some things. I saw that Coin Cards offers prepaid credit cards and I have read that, while PayPal requires either a bank account or a credit card to use, they might allow prepaid credit cards to be used instead, so I thought I'd ask just to make sure.
