Don't they have visa in europe?

Indeed.  That was silly of me.  I just have difficulties to realize how easy it is to create a Visa with this stuff.

You're kidding ?  Of course it would be nice.  Although I'm not sure I could use them in Europe.  But that would worth a try.

Was I kidding? Tongue

Hmm... I should be able to send them for the cost of a stamp/envelope by lettermail.

It should work wherever VISA is accepted.

I might be able to get the $100 denominations as physical cards. I could mail them out as lettermail.

Any interest in this service?

We have VISA but from my experience no gift cards, thus merchants my frown upon accepting a card that does not hold the owner's name. But I never tried a card with no name, only have my wife use the card in my name, so that might be completely different.

Hmm.. I'm not sure if I can get the cards encoded with a particular name on them or not. I'll have to talk to the bank.

if it *doesn't* work, its not like you're out any money, you just can't use it in that store, you can always link it to paypal and transfer it to your bank account. I've already created a paypal account with one of these cards as the funding source.

Rates seem a little steep at current market prices...$100USD card for ~128USD worth of BTC....that's quite a margin...

why do people think that converting your bitcoins into plastic is good for the bitcoin economy?

if you want to spend your bitcoins why not just withdraw into your bank, no need for one guy to get everyones bitcoins for some dumb prepaid card service
