Kinda sucks for me, as I've almost exclusively used gift cards for the last few years. I get a bonus tax-free credit card by my employer, which I can only use at retail stores. So those were a great way for me to use that card to buy games. It was also a good option for people who wanted to avoid payment providers like Visa/Mastercard etc. Oh well.

What about using a virtual credit card?

I guess, I'm just speaking from experience. My parents were slow to trust with stuff like that. Same thing with using their card for iTunes lol.
