It worked- I was successfully able to donate with a pre-paid gift card! (whatever)

submitted ago by Empress?

Stopped by the gas station on the way home from errands and picked up this guy. As you can see, there is a $3.95 fee that has to be paid to the store but I bit the bullet. My first attempt at using the card was declined so I called the company and was informed that for online purchases a zip code had to be registered. I registered a zip code and then tried again using billing information that could be found on the card. Am very happy to report that a successful transaction happened.

If you'd like to give and want to remain anonymous, pre-paid gift cards work! https://store.voat.co/donations

I got an amex version of that card, will that work?

They all work for online purchases; you just have to register them on their websites (printed on the packaging or on the card themselves) with a valid zip code. Just google maps the nearest McDonald's and use their zip code.
