I know that The Planet doesn't accept Paypal, but all my online income is on my paypal and I can't withdraw money from my paypal. I can't pay with my credit card either. I'd love to take a ded server from TP, but this is a issue for me. What are my options? Should I try to find a preloaded debit card or something? I'd probably need to pay around $500 every month or less.

I'm pretty sure preloaded debit cards are not valid for recurring server fees either (because they are not necessarily linked to your identity), so the best course of action is to speak with a sales or billing representative in Live Chat or on the phone to determine if/how we can arrange payment.

Sorry to contradict you, Kevin. I've been paying with a preloaded debit card for years now. Specifically one called a Netspend card which you can get and load at any Nix Check Cashing, Safeway/Vons Market, etc.

FYI, if you have a PayPal account, you can get a free debit card that's tied in directly with your PayPal account. See here.

Cheers.

You don't have to apologize, Mark... I'm glad someone knows the answer.

For some reason I recall there being limitations on the kinds of cards we accept, but that's why I was "pretty sure" and not "certain." The sales/billing folks would know for sure, though ... so I stick by that part of my post.

Well, I did sign up using a bankcard initially...

I pay my bill every month with my Paypal Debit.

I should have mentioned that I'm not from USA. I'm in Europe, I dont think paypal gives debit cards to foreigners

I am looking into Netspend. Is there any way to load my Netspend card with paypal?

The day TP starts accepting paypal, i will refer hundreds of customers to you.

The problem is.......paypal is still feable and full of crap, they freeze accounts and do refunds for nothing and anything. I use them only as they are still the cheapest route for a small online presence.

Ah! Ok, gotcha.


Yep! There are instructions in the panel, but I think you have to be in the U.S. to use and load this thing.
