    so the fact is that I have the whole summer free and I wanna earn some money
    I have some c++ , little c# , html , some php & photo editing skills
    but the only problem is that I don't have a credit card (as I'm 16) to confirm my paypal account
    is there any other way around ?

    I was thinking about bitcoin but not very much people use that

    what shall I do & where shall I begin searching for people needing programs or pictures ?
    thanks

    the best way is ask your parent to give permission to use their name to create the paypal account

    Try to get a Virtual credit card, perhaps with your parents help

    I use paypal with a verified bank account, also most banks will give you a visa debit which is what I use on paypal as they recognize this as a regular visa card :)

    You can either have someone you trust hold your funds for you, or you can maybe ask your parents.

    tell your parents about your idea. I'm sure they will support you and help to get a verified account. also parents can be very helpful by getting ideas and even more like legal stuff for example. do not try a "workaround" if you don't have to

    However, in online marketing, in terms of receiving payment, you need to have Paypal! What you can do is you can get a Paypal account in name of your parent as suggested above.

    In terms of online marketing, check bitcoingg to open bitcoin account and to get $10 into it in BTC's.
