    hey guys,

    I was just wondering how you are paying company's like godaddy that are cheap in some cases but only accept credit card payments.
    I know you can get giftcards but this takes to long in my opinion.
    Are there any other ways you can recomend me? I need to get a domain right now and I would like to get it on godaddy so what to do.

    thanks for your help;)

    Prepaid credit cards exists for these situations,
    Ask your bank about it.

    If you have a checking account, get a debit card for it and use it just like a credit card, Simple. ;)

    NEVER EVER EVER EVER use someone else's card.

    If you have no means of adding a creditcard to your Paypal account, then
    consider using another domain registrar:

    These let you and also have reasonable prices:
    - namecheap.com
    - name.com

    Good luck
