Funding P*S with a prepaid Credit Card

I have a buddy that wants to fund Poker stars using a prepaid credit card. Can someone give me a couple of choices that they know to have worked. I've heard that the ones sold at walgreens work, but I've also heard of some that will not work, because they will not fund gambling. What fees are associated with using the card. I would hate to see him buiy a $100 card for whatever the price is and then pay another 10% in fees.

Thanks in advnce

David

Re: Funding P*S with a prepaid Credit Card

The Gift2go prepaid Visa from Walgreens works just fine at P*. The Vanilla and Green Dot prepaid Visas will not. Hope that helps. Linky .

Tiered Pricing structure for individual Gift2go value cards:
Card Amount Service Fee per Card
$20 - $99.99 $3.95
$100 - $199.99 $4.95
$200 - $250 $5.95

Re: Funding P*S with a prepaid Credit Card

If he has a Visa Debit Card that can be used as credit, it can't hurt to give that a shot. My bank (Ohio Savings, which is now called 'Amtrust Bank' for banks outside of Ohio) lets me use my card as a credit card, and instantly accepts the deposit requests on P*.

I have done this as well... I used my debit card with FTP & P* with no problems... Maybe worth a shot.
