Can't pay with Maestro

[Jopo 369]

So yesterday I tried to pay for the supporter races, but I couldn't pay because it said there was something wrong with my number.

Now my guess is that I can't pay with maestro, is there any other possible way to get the private races on wcs ?

Like using prepaid cards etc..

PayPal?

[Jopo 369]

Yeah, but if I want some money on paypal, I need to transfer it from my card.

And that is the problem, it doesn't work with maestro.

I suggest talking to PayPal.

Should. Maestro is MasterCard.

[Jopo 369]

No, I googled it, they say it's not exactly the same.

Mastercard has a number on the back with the secure code, which a Maestro card has not, and you must have one for online paying.

Yeah, but the problem I have is that I can't select Maestro on Paypal. Although it says you can.

If I want to connect my card I have to give my number and the secure code, and maestro doesn't have one.

What you have to do is link your card with your paypal and paypal will put like 0.02-0.10 in your bank which you then read from your Bank statement and type it in to your paypal account as a confirmation to activate your card. Then when you click "Pay with PayPal", it will only ask you to enter your email and password which then after that the exact ammount of money will come automatically from your bank.

tl;dr You don't have to tranfer money from Paypal manually, it's automatic.

I will pay you back during school then

Maestro is debit and Mastercard is credit

Reason why you can't use Maestro in countries like holland and belgium are because we have the PIN-code and companies like paypal aren't allowed to ask for that code, you should just do bank transfer, transfer however much money you want to have on there then pay with paypal, there's a delay of like 3-4 days though, but it's the best you can do (unless you have a credit card).

If you want to use PayPal, you don't need to transfer money from a credit or debit card to PayPal, PayPal simply saves that card's information for quick use, that is, you needn't reenter information every time you make a purchase, you just log in and pay with PayPal... It's like a macro for spending.

I dunno why it's so hard. Credit or debit, PayPal works with either here. Have you contacted PayPal about it?
