IeatWindex Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Well I was on the phone with a friend, and we were talking about going to Target for an RS pre-paid card, when he found out we could get these kind of cards that work for alot of online games. Anyone know things about this "Ultimate Gaming Card"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenin64 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I think they call them "credit cards". But no, although I would like to know what you're talking about. Sounds interesting.

ember3579 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I think they call them "credit cards". But no, although I would like to know what you're talking about. Sounds interesting. DEFINITELY not a credit card. I used these to pay for my RS membership a while back (when I played). They work precisely how you'd expect them to; put in the code on the back of one of these into the site, spend the money on whatever it is you want to pay for (if it's on the freaking huge list of games that accept it as payment). You can pay for 2 full months of RS membership with one card,and ~6 months with 2. Sadly, you can't transfer excess money you use to pay for one game to pay for a different one. Still would recommend them over just about anything else for general gaming use, though.

Alg Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It'd probably be one of those American Express-type giftcards. At least those sound like they would work for that. Though I've only ever seen game-specific prepay cards. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Adam Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It's like a gift card, only you can use it pretty much anywhere. I bought one for my Mom this Christmas - buy it at a CVS or such, and you can use it like a credit card wherever (Visa in this case) cards are accepted. I think it's cheaper too. $30 for a $25 card, over $7.50? for a month card, about... might be roughly the same. Pretty nifty, and probably smarter than picking up a card with RuneScape stickers on the front =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracion1 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I feel like such a nerd, I thought you were on about graphics cards when I read the title. It depends where you live, I haven't seen them here in the UK. I think the company that makes these prepaid cards might let you pay for other games with them, but I'm not 100% sure. Best bet is just to look for the RuneScape card, at least that way you'll know it will work. "In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodredsword Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I feel like such a nerd, I thought you were on about graphics cards when I read the title. Don't worry, you wern't the only one. So it's basically just a pre-paid debit card....nothing new Listen to the mighty words of Bloodredsword. Tip it MGC Xbox live leader board!

Mischlings Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I've bought a couple of these. They are not prepaid debit cards. They are specifically for gaming, about $10 each, and have various game logos/imagery on the front, although each card will work for any game that accepts PayByCash payments. If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
