You need to look through this thread carefully and read what one of the FC staff, Kohler had to say about using prepaids, ANY type, here at FC.
It is against FC's TOS. Doesn't matter if it is a Prepaid CC that you can purchase from a store or bank. Prepaid is prepaid and a HUGE no no here.
Just thought you'd like to know.
Considering 99.9% of businesses accept the prepaid cards (i.e Green dot, Momentum Card, etc - That have your name on them) I don't see how FC can say we aren't allowed to use them. That should be STRICTLY up to the advertisers since they are the ones offering the product.
and, maybe I missed it, but I don't see anything in the TOS that says prepaid CREDIT CARDS (not gift cards) aren't allowed.
I think you did in fact miss several things regarding the issue of using PrePaid cards for offers completed here at FC.
1-The Advertisers that have a deal with FC do not want prepaid cards used to fulfill offers. And it is in fact, against FC' policy to use them b/c Advertisers do not want us using them!
2-This is from Kohler who is a FC Staffer, perhaps you missed this post or was absent that day. So here it is again:

You are only supposed to complete offers you are interested in. And using a prepaid card is against the rules and when the advertiser turns in the list of accounts who have used them, we have the close the account to keep in good standing
Well, I've used them on other sites for some of the same offers that they have here and never had a problem. maybe they should actually state it IN the TOS. I read it and it doesn't say a thing about which cards are allowed. And paypal debit cards are not considered prepaid. they are the same as using a checking account debit card.
And what about the people who can't get approved for a credit card or a debit card? I guess their money isn't good enough, right?
I never said anywhere on FC that the Paypal debit card was considered a prepaid. So why add that in when quoting me? Perhaps you should go through this entire thread and properly quote the one who said it is? Just an idea!
I've been a verified Paypal member for 6 years & have had both their CC & Prepaid cards for 2 years. I have one account just for use with my ebay sellers account & one account I use just for all of the GPT sites I belong to that pay me. So would be pretty rhetorical of me to claim that the Paypal debit card is a prepaid card. lol
Furthermore, if you do not like how the rules are here, I suggest you take it up with FC itself regarding the prepaid subject.
Have a GREAT day!
The point IS... that card types ARE NOT listed in the TOS, which are the rules we agree to when we sign up... if they don't want us using those prepaid cards it should be stated. Then there wouldn't be all this confusion...
You're the only one who seems to be confused. Everyone else who has asked about the use of prepaid cards has been told it's not allowed & they have moved on. You, you sit there and gripe about how FC should have no right in telling us that we cannot use prepaid cards for offers. The fact IS, FC tells us this b/c the advertisers do not allow it!
And I think FC can make any rule they so wish as this is their site & we are making our money from them, NOT the advertisers. The advertisers pay sites such as FC to get them new customers. When the customers, you & I, sign up for an offer, FC gets a bounty for it. That's also why FC tells us to only sign up for offers that we are genuinely interested in. And in return, FC shares with us some of their bounty. FC can offer us these great deals all day long but they do not have to pay us but they do, for our time in completing them.
So for that, you should be grateful and quit griping about the same subject over & over again. Because no matter how much you do so, the rule still applies: NO USE OF PREPAID CARDS TO FULFILL OFFERS!
