I don't have PayPal....what can I do?

Setting up a PayPal account requires a credit card which many do not have or do not want.

In cases like this we have a great solution which will help stop you missing out on great online deals that require the use of PayPal.

On a website called MoneyBookers.com you can create an account for €10/year which gives you the facilitiy of a prepaid credit card. This credit card you receive in the post.

What is great about this service is that you can top up your MoneyBookers prepaid credit card with your laser card online and there is no top up charge.

What does this mean?

With the prepaid credit card you can create a PayPal account.

Once you have all this setup you can simply move money from your laser card (free of charge) to your MoneyBookers account and make online payments via PayPal, in effect from your laser card.

This will open up the way you can shop online with your laser card. You can use this method to shop on CondomsIreland.ie and other sites such as Ebay. The real beauty of this is that there is no top up fee from laser to your MoneyBookers credit card so the whole process costs you nothing extra except the €10/year fee for the credit card and account setup.

A MoneyBookers credit card has other benefits to. Use your MoneyBookers credit card to book flights with Ryanair and you don't pay any booking fees (worth €10) so you'll effectively get your annual fee back from one Ryanair booking.
