its a good idea +1.......but ya gotta love  the goofy response of one guy who says....7 hours from walmart...thats 500 miles.....lol...maybe in weirdo fantasy world.maybe he dosent know that some of us live in area's where there are no super hiways. and that average speed through small towns and mountain roads is about 25mph.  7 hours may be a bit far,maybe its round trip.  i know i am 2 hours to walmart...and that means i have to spend a bout 4 hours to go to walmart,plus gas and time.....its not worth it for a pre paid card. which is why i mail my payment in. one thing pay pal does for you is a currency converter.so if in another country,it may help


Yu should expect goofy responses from me. But still, with an outrageous claim of 7 hours to get to a walmart I think an outrageous response is warranted. And I don't believe that average speed would ever be 25mph. I'm assuming ave speed of at least 60mph even on normal roads. Unless you mean to tell me that they didn't lay tarmac on any of the roads on this epic adventure to walmart.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

Having a PayPal option would help those outside of the US where payment options are more limited.


This.


Seems in this discussion it's overlooked that it's not just an American game, but has a world wide player base.
Over here for example, credit cards in any form are less common than in the US. and people are generally more reluctant to use it online. In other countries it's much worse, and stuff like international money orders are quite a hassle.


And no, there are no Walmarts here at all... they tried to break into the market several years ago and failed big time  :P

doesnt paypal require you to connect to a bank account?  and wont the bank account give you an atm card?



semp
:airplane: I have for the past 15 years, used PayPal to service some of my accounts! They ask you for a credit card number, or bank account info. A third method is having PayPal issue you a PayPal credit card which is kept on file with PayPal and bingo, your monthly dues to Aces High is automatically deducted from that card.
Blue Skies and wind at my back and wish that for all!!!

Back when Aces High was 29.95 a month and I was a poor college kid, I paid with Money Orders. I didn't even have a bank account. LOL!
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
