Sadly, I just found out that the visa card I bought can only be used with non-international websites. That pretty much rules everything I can think of out.

Does anyone know where I can buy a wallet code from a website that only deals in the U.S?

Thanks!

It's just a visa vanilla gift card (prepaid), and it didn't say anywhere that I could see that it couldn't be used internationally.

And you bought this where?
Did you real ALL the teeny tiny print?
And where are you trying to use it?

I bought it at a local walgreens, yes I read the fine print, I think it was on the terms and conditions listed inside the packaging.

I'm trying to use it on paypal's gift website, steam, kinguin, and a few other places. None of them work.

I called support, and they said it was because it wasn't allowed for me to use it internationally.

Well, what are you trying to buy? From where?

"steam, kinguin, and a few other places"

'steam' may well mean overseas. Similar with kinguin.
This all depends on where the 'seller' is. Especially kinguin.

So basically...you have a US based prepaid visa card.
You're trying to buy steam codes from kinguin and elsewhere. Overseas somewhere.
Your visa people have blocked those sales. Probably for a reason.

Maybe you should listen to them.
