BTCPak - Exchange your Bitcoins for MP [$100, $250, $500 and $1000 MPs]

[DBordello]

Everything is back in stock.  I apologize to everybody for the inconsistent inventory levels over the past week.  The Mt.Gox withdraw delays has really put a crunch on our liquidity.  Hopefully everything should be back to normal.

Will be trying this out very soon.  I actually had the same idea for this service, but had a financial crisis so didn't have the capital to start it up.  Glad to see someone else doing it.

Edit:  Just bought a $250 MoneyPak, and loaded it flawlessly.  Great service.

stock empty again?

stock empty again?

We are ramping up our stock as we speak.  There are currently $250 and $500s available. Hopefully this is the last time our inventory runs so low.

Just a quick update.  Everything is now in stock ($100, $250, $500).  Thank you everybody for your understanding.

I see that PayPal now has a reloadable debit card that is reloaded with cash through any Neteller (at 7-11, for instance) agent location.

Would BTC-Pak consider selling these reload amounts?

I am going to keep an eye out for these.  I will let you know if I find out more.

Sorry for the brief hickup in inventory.  Everything should be back to normal.

Nice, clean and simple looking site! And I don't mean "simple" as in insult. It overall looks very clean!

Back on topic...Is this the MoneyPak that is strictly virtual? Or is it the MoneyPak that is an actual physical debit card ?

Thank you for the kind words about the site.  I always take simple as a complement

These are physical MP cards.  However, you receive the scratch-off code on the website after your payment is confirmed (about an hour).  A scan of the physical card and receipt is available upon request.  (To date, nobody has requested one).  

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

One of the customers over paid 11 BTC for a $500 MP.  If you are that customer, I have sent 11 BTC to your refund address.

This marks the first time I have used the refund address    I was debating removing it, up until now.  I figured it was a good safety net, and perhaps provides customer confidence.

Out of $100 again?

Out of $100 again?  

I apologize for the inconvenience.  All MPs are now in stock.

Great site thanks,

Shameless bump.

Shameless bump.

Ironically, services that function as they are supposed to get little forum activity.  (If the MoneyPak code was received and everything works great, why post a comment?)

I do have a question though.

How long (e.g., none/instant, couple hours, next day, or several days) does it take between when I buy a reloadable debit card at the store before I can have access to it to load funds from MoneyPak?  

Let's say it is the WalMart moneycard that I buy.  I can only buy it with cash at Walmart, for example.  I know I then need to register it online before I can load additional amounts to it from a MoneyPak.  So starting from when I register it, how long is it after doing that before I'm allowed to load the MoneyPak?

It is a bit unfortunate that services that function properly get little feedback.  Although we sell about 10 MPs a day, we don't get much positive feedback here.  Oh well, better than the opposite.

I believe that you can load a MP on a reloadable debit card immediately after you register it (I am not sure if you have to register at all).  You can then use the temporary card that you purchased to use it as a Visa or MasterCard.  However, to use it at an ATM, you typically have to wait for the permanent card with your name on it.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have any further questions.

Yes, that's were I was confused.  I hadn't realized the reloadable prepaid debit card from the store is not the permanent card, and that is where the delay I had heard about comes from.  Thanks!
