  2. most banks and grocery stores sell prepaid cards. i don't think a 14 yr old can purchase one, you would have to ask. but they can have one and use it i know becuse my son has carried one for a few years now and he is 12. you just have to be very carefull that the 14 yr old is not taken advance of by overcharging or theft of the card number. shop with the 14 yr old until they get the hang of it

  3. You can buy a visa gift card at one of the following locations:

    Duane Reade

    Rite Aid

    Walgreens

    CVS

    Bartells

    Grocery Stores/Supermarkets

    Wegmans

    Safeway

    Winn Dixie

    Roundys

    Wal-Mart

    Stater Bros

    Albertsons

    Giant Eagle

    King Kullen

    A & P

    HEB

    Pathmark

    Price Chopper

    Big Y Food

    Martins

    Giant

    Stop & Shop

    Food Lion

    Bashas

    Yes, you can use it online. But before you do that, you need to register it with the gift card issuer.

    The problem with using Visa (or any other bank issued) gift card online is that there is no verifiable name and address associated with the card. When buying things online, most merchants want your name and billing address to match the name and address you have on file with your card (credit, debit, or bank gift card) issuer.

    Therefore, before you use your Visa or other bank issued gift card, call the merchant/financial institution that issued the card or go to their website and add your name and address to the card. This will ensure that when you use the card online, the name and address you provide to the merchant for billing will match the name and address on file for the card. Once you have registered your card, you can use it online just like you would use a regular credit card.
