Accepted payment methods
Last updated 7 August 2026
Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, and Discover, charged in US dollars. Prepaid cards, gift cards, and PayPal are not accepted.
| Accepted | Not accepted |
| Visa | Prepaid cards |
| Mastercard | Gift cards |
| Maestro | PayPal |
| Discover |
Both credit and debit cards on these networks can be used. The card has to be in your own name.
Why prepaid and gift cards are excluded
They cannot be traced back to a person, which makes them a common route for fraud, so platforms in our position generally do not take them. PayPal does not support the kind of content sold here.
A card that is not accepted will usually just fail at checkout rather than being refused with an explanation, so if a payment will not go through, check what you are using before anything else.
Common questions
+Can I pay with a virtual card from my bank?
If it is issued against your own account on one of the networks above, it will usually work. Virtual cards from prepaid services will not.
+Can I pay with cryptocurrency?
Not at the moment.
+Can I use someone else's card?
No. The card has to be yours. Paying with someone else's card is against our terms, and it is the most common reason an account ends up restricted after a dispute.
+Can I save more than one card?
Check your account settings for the payment methods saved to it.
