graydaze said:A VISA gift card can have a certain amount put on the card and that is all you can have. I know for a fact. Why? Becauise I've used them. The only information you need when you use the gift card online is the name of the person who bought it, the address the person gave the bank. That's it. With that information, anyone can use the card.
Prepaid credit cards, from what I've been informed can be given to people as young as 16. I also believe a minor can have a credit card as long as they have someone of age cosign... not 100% on that.
That is true. I had my first CCard at 17, with the help of my dad cosigning on it.
