That means i'll go to the store/bank and tell them that i'm gonna
buy something(whatever it might be) on the internet for 20 dollars/Euros
and then i get a temporary Visa/Mastercard loaded with that amount
of money. I'll then go to the hompage that has the product i what
and type in the info like i would normaly do with a normal
creditcard and the money is on its way!(and i get 18k of Xim!).
This means you dont have to get a creditcard, and if something would
happend to the pre-paid creditcard the only amount of money you would
loose is the amount thats "loaded" in it(20 dollars/euros in this example).
You don't loose your life-savings so to speak, or the amount of money
you might have on the account other than the 20 dollars/euro you
intended to spend.
How does this sound to you guys?
