I use a Debit card. Mastercard to be exact. Just make sure you select the type of card you have, enter all your numbers correctly, the security code at the back of the card and your expiry date.
Should work fine.

INCORRECT! You can use a debit card. Just treat it as a credit card.

Your debit card will have a "credit card label" i.e. mastercard or visa. your debit card will also have an expiration date and a 3-4 digit security number on the back. Those are all the main form fields you will nee. Oh and the name, but that should be obvious.

Are those 3-4 digit security number on the back suppossed to be the PIN code? because i dont see any numbers dats 3-4 digits other then the expiration date

it amazes me how many people dont know that you can use debit cards as credit

when you go to the store and you hand them a DEBIT card and they say debit or credit? say CREDIT and it still works

Actually using CREDIT with your debit card is better, because it is free, while using DEBIT charges you anywhere between .50-1.50.the only thing you have to do then is shoe your ID and sign, instead of input your pin

i still cant blieve how many people dont know this, i learned this when i got my first debit card at age 16

In canada u cant use a debit card..what we consider a debit card is what u guys consider an atm card(i think i really dont know much about us)- as in our debits cards have no expiration and arent a mastercard/visa or whatever but branded by the bank and cant be used like this. So dont be too quick to judge not everyone is american
