once the card is connected, do you have to transfer money from your card to your paypal funds, or do u just use the card throuah paypal somehow?
It put 240 dollars on this card to buy clothes at an international store online. When I go to register the card to link it to my paypal it says on the visa card site I can't do international purchases even If they are online well I'm not furious or anything :(
Hi! I clicked on profile(paypal) and it came out as
card type:visa
last 4 digits on card
billing address
action: edit or remove. what do I do?

It keeps saying "This credit card has been denied by the bank that issued your credit card. For details on why your card was denied, please contact your credit card issuer's customer service department. Or, you may want to try adding a different credit card."
Yet it's registered and has a lot of money in it ):

This is how ittotally works! For Vanillla Visa cards you MUST:
A. "Register" your card at vanilla visa with your zipcode
B. You MUST create a NEW PAYPAL account and:
D. Your name must be First: A GIFT Last: FOR YOU
C. With the shipping you add your real name and address
Terrific! It works and I'm thrilled!
Thanks to all!

I put $400 on a vanilla visa giftcard today, registered it, and linked it to my existing PayPal account with no problem.
Shit doesn't work. I have $25 Vanilla Gift Card. I cannot link it to paypal. Although I bought card 4 months ago, misplaced it, just registered today. So maybe it won't work same day I registered it? It only allowed me to enter a zipcode to register, but it is the same zip code as my paypal address. Another question: Is it possible Paypal has cookies on my computer, I have four other paypal accounts, is it linking this new one i did for vanilla with my other paypal accounts?
You CAN still use this on Paypal, however you have to make a NEW account AND (important part) you have to list your name as First Name: A Gift Last Name: For You
Once I did this my account was able to accept MULTIPLE Vanilla Visa gift cards.

will it work with a gift card Visa
Replacement Card Status: Card Ordered on 12/26/2011 - If your card has not arrived by 01/09/2012 please re-order a replacement and/or contact Customer Service. .... wtf fail
Man these Vanilla Visa cards suck. I had to wait a week before I could use it because I tried it to fill up my gas tank. Even after the gas pump asked for my zip code and I put in the one I entered on the Vanilla Visa website didn't work. I did that a week ahead of time in case the system took awhile. Declined. Great, I tried to use the card for a week after that and declined everytime.
I saw the preauthorization on the vanilla website transaction history, and they do warn you about this. I was prepared to get hit with it, but I was not expecting to get rejected for the gas fillup at the ZIP CODE screen, why the heck would it even charge a preauthorization if you haven't even told the gas pump your zip code, that is bass ackwards.
So I wait a week and I can finally use it again. I did a Buy It Now on Ebay, seller said he acccepted PayPal with VISA logo. I go to add the card to PayPal to pay, DENIED. What the F*($#. So now I'm stuck with these purchases on this "VISA" card I can't pay for.
This card has been more trouble than its worth. Even when I did use it at a merchant (bike shop) the owner gave me a hard time saying it didn't look like a legitimate card and he was weary accepting it. I don't blame him since the card number is just printed on. I hope the ebay seller isn't too mad I can't pay for the listing, stupid card, some gift.

please help ? get an error everyt?me
Hey for some of you, this option still wont work like it did for me, so anyways all you have to do is CREATE A NEW PAYPAL and add credit card! Now i dont know why but it works.
Has this changed? My paypal transaction does not have any 4 digit code preceding the word "paypal" on the vanilla visa account history screen...
YOU are awesome. This would have taken me hours. And your post made it possible in 5 mins. !!! THANKS
Well i used this and its like loading on to paypal very slowly is this right?
Someone actually gave me one of these stupid cards for a christmas "gift." Why the hell didn't they just give me cash? They would've saved the $5 activation fee, and I wouldn't be confused as balls as to how to use it. Cash works anywhere. The Vanilla Gift is a gift of inconvenience and frustration...next year, just give me a lump of shit in my stocking and save me the aggrivation!
looks good but dont have a card yet so il have to wait till i get one
Their website is down and you cannot register any Vanilla Visa cards, so they are worthless today. I WOULD NEVER NEVER buy one again. They were supposed to be up and running by 11 am and it is 2pm and no such thing. I feel like I have been robbed. Disgusting experience.
cannot get this to work
paypal doesnt work with these cards anymore... you can only give your address.
Vanilla now only uses your zip code to register your card instead of name & address.That now makes the card useless for most online transactions.
nvm found it
where do i go to confirm that 4 digit code?
I cannot seem to get past verifying my account. Paypal keeps saying it cannot make the transaction to card :(
Yea, I dont see the register your card link? please help
omg thx
hey i dont see the links to register ur card
OMFGGGGG tysm saved me 200$$!!!!@!#@!
I LOVE YOU!!
this really worked for me!!
working
