Zach asked:

I have a Vanilla Visa gift card that has 50 dollars on it, but for some reason runescape will not let me use it. (the card is a debit card) I have contacted visa and they said there is 50 dollars on the card. Am i doing something wrong? Can you even use a gift card?

    To be honest, there are a few likely causes.
    Have to registered your Visa gift card for use with online purchases?
    That is one of the main problems… shrushroom

    Both VISA and Mastercard gift cards can be used at online stores. You enter them as your payment just as if they are a normal VISA or Mastercard credit card.

    There are two issues that frequently pop up:

    When the store goes to authenticate your card it fails due to the address. A regular credit card has an actual address tied to it. The gift card obviously does not. Some web sites adapt to this – others don’t.

    When the tax and shipping are added in the total price exceeds the amount on the gift card. Ansrgeek
