Hey there.
I wanted to order my saber today using the March discount when I noticed: I can't order without a credit card, which isn't as easy to come by in Germany as in the US, as it seems. So, can I somehow order without a Credit Card? |

I am interested in this as well, since I don't have a credit card, either. I would either use a debit card or one of those Visa gift cards.

I have a debit card, with lots of money on it, but here in Germany, using credit cards is rather unusual for young people like me, and it's rather hard to get one.

As was stated on the March Sale thread, the sale applies to main site orders only. Hopefully, you can find a way to make it work.

Some people may have bad credit and don’t qualify for a card. Banks can even turn you down for a debit card if your credit is bad enough. Having no credit can be as bad as having bad credit, which would make it harder for young people who haven’t established credit. |

in europe I used a prepaid visa card, much easier than a real credit card for europe, and it's prepaid so it's harder to abuse

Everyone that has bad credit dont buy expensive lighrsabers. Pay your bills snd get good credit first. Those too young, what are parents for? I think i had a debt card since i was 18 and credit cards as well. In America they almost just sign you up for them automatically.

Not helpful... The issue is that he's not american. The system is totally different in europe. I didn't have a credit score until I came to the US and started paying rent, and that was hard without a credit score. Not bad credit, zero score, didn't exist. North America is one of the only places that has a magical point-based score ranking people's financial abilities. Not his fault he wasn't born into a predatory system based on incentivizing people owing a corporation a months wages instead of buying s**t with money you have But yeah, prepaid visa card counts as a credit card for online purchases |

A: I have no debts to pay off, all bills are paid as soon as they appear.
B: I am not too young, it's simply quite hard to get a credit card in Germany. None of my friends/people my age has a credit card. Will try to get a credit card from the bank where I have my account. |

Yep, this is what I did. Even if they don't offer a credit service (where you spend their money and pay it back at the end of the month, or you don't fully and they get to collect interest fees), if they are like my bank they offer a prepaid card that acts as a separate account, into which you put money, and it acts the same as a credit card in terms of making purchases. Mention that you want it for international use as Maestro or so isn't accepted in the states, you will want Visa or Mastercard |

Will call my bank today, I read on the internet that they also offer these "prepaid" credit cards. |

Until then, I just want to know if I can use prepaid Visa gift cards for ordering parts and hilts. |

I heard that you can use prepaid credit cards like a normal card, problem for me is that in Germany, they are only available for 100€ maximum.
