You mean like a checkcard? If so, yeah they work, I deposit money with my visa checkcard.

The All Access Visa was working for most of the summer. But about a month ago they changed and are currently in the 'unknown' category.

PS is promoting echecks, not sure at FT, but there are many sites that do a regular VISA.

When it comes to this, you have to be very careful to get a specific kind of prepaid Credit Card. Keep in mind that there are different companies that issue them and are available at different stores.

For me, I bought a prepaid $100 All Access Visa Card and used it on PS on 09/26. It comes in a silver package.

I'm not sure if they still work, but I have a friend who used them in the past and was about to reload today, so I'll update this later and let you know.

In November I purchased an All Access visa gift card and registered online then put half in PokerStars and the other half in FullTilt poker. No Problems of any kind.

You want to get the All Access Visa Giftcard, not the reloadable one. Check out this link to find a store location near you that sells them. I just used one the other day on Stars. Worked fine.

Nope, you just choose the Visa option to deposit. Easy as pie.

I purchased my All Access gift card at a Fry's (Kroger) grocery store.
