Can the prepaid visa gift cards be used to make an online payment?

I want to buy something online but i'm not sure if the prepaid visa gift cards can be used to buy something online. Anyone know?

Can the prepaid visa gift cards be used to make an online payment?
Yes you can. Just when you make a purchase just type the number in. Simple as that. Have the digits on the back of the card handy too. You know the 3 or 4 digit security code.
Reply:Your Prepaid Visa Card works just like a regular credit card, so as long as the online retailer/company accepts Visa credit cards, you should be able to buy items online. You can find more information on using your prepaid card here: http://www.debit-card-guide.com/prepaid_... If you still have a question about whether or not the seller accepts Visa, you can always contact them to ask or review the FAQ section. Contact information should be posted on their website, as well as FAQ’s (Frequently Ask Questions). Hope this helps!
Reply:Yes, you can use a prepaid visa gift card to shop online. But before you do that, you need to register the card with the card issuer (add your name and address to the card), otherwise it may be rejected online.
Reply:I am thinking they wont work. I say this because when you place an order online, the there is generally a verification process that validates your credit card against your address and zip code. You will not be able to do this with a prepaid.
