Hey, iv been receiving a good amount of feed back on my designs within the comp area and have happened to win 2. I have opened a paypal account (i live in gibraltar) do i need a credit card so that i can receive the money they are going to send? Thank You
Well, although you can open a Gibraltar Paypal account but currently it would be a Send Only Paypal account http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-approved-signup-countries-outside which basically means that you can only pay someone and not receive any payments. As there is no way else you can fund the account, a credit card is definitely needed for two purposes, one to get your account verified (to tag more trust to it and increase your limits) and the other is that you will be able to make purchases through Paypal. You might want to find another payment method which allows you to receive payments. You can always consider http://www.plimus.com which supports Paypal and major credit cards payment methods.
Yes - you will be needing a credit card if you have one then it's well and good if you don not have it then you can purchase VCC online which you can get in BST section from any of the member who is selling it.
Get a VCC if you need one, and add your bank if you can. There are other options like moneybookers and egold you can use.
Since you have your business, I recommend you to get your paypal account verified by using a credit card. Just by having a credit cardwill not help alone. You must attache your credit ard with the paypal account. For that you have to visit the paypal website and put in the details ofthe concerned credit card. Also a special code will have to be put in the field on the paypal account. This code will be given to you by the bank and it will be mentioned on the statement of your bank account. You can aso call up the bank inorder to read your last bank transaction with regard to your paypal transaction.
