Pay Online Without a Credit Card or Paypal
Sometimes you don't have access to a PayPal account, or you just don't have a credit card. Here is how to still be able to pay online.

Steps
- Search for an appropriate method. You can adopt another web bank account like Moneybooker, but it is not the only way to pay online.
- You can also choose to go to the nearest shop and buy prepaid cards. It is also a safe way to pay online. These can be bought at local shops, such as Barnes and Noble, Safeway, or any other small store. The cards can traditionally be found where the rest of the gift cards are.
- Another possibility is to pay through your mobile phone, though it is mainly used to pay small amounts.
- The last possibility is to pay by check, or send (physical) money to the recipient. It should be safe.
Tips
- Please use a strong password when creating an account on a payment website. Also, often change your password. It is really important if you want to keep your money safe.
- If some payment methods could not be available for your country, just switch to another.
- Here is a non-exhaustive list of trusted payment web sites (except PayPal): Moneybookers, smart2pay, and click2pay.
Warnings
- Stay safe, and don't trust every payment method you find. Some are scammers and will rob your money. Don't get paranoid either.
