I added 3 amex ($500) gift cards to my paypal account and then verified them with the transaction codes but every time I tried to send money or make a purchase it was a flagged as a "risky" transaction and was asked to add a back account or use a moneypak.

Please enter a different card number. If you have further questions, please contact the business that issued your card." Any help please, because it worked last time Ok, when I try to link my Vanilla Visa to PayPal, it says this: “Your credit or debit card has not been added since your card issuer does not allow checking the card’s billing address.

I have a suggestion for you, apply for a normal account with some other website and then use it for your Charity website, I have list of websites who are doing the same thing. You can also try some other Payment Gateways like CCavenue, but in case you are using Vbulletin script, I don’t think so that it may help you. The first suggestion may work for you.

Before you try to get it onto a PayPal, be sure to call them (1-877-297-4438) and talk to customer service. I ended up checking my balance first (under the "more options" submenu) before getting to the customer service option, and doing so makes it a little easier later on, as you dial your number rather than speaking it. The customer service representative was a very nice lady, and she helped me through the process of registering my THREE cards with absolutely no problems whatsoever, probably saving my opinion of American Express.

The Vanilla Visa gift card do have problems being used online. However, Simon Mall giftcard can be used online, you purchase it at a Simon mall with cash and you register it online. If you cant register it online, call customer service up. They will put the correct address on. Also, some banks sell mastercard/visa gift cards and they enter your address for you.
