Mijo Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Looking for this type of card. No Mexican bank account. Can’t order from some vendors or pay some Mexican bills online because I only have a US card. Maybe OXXO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalGal Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 I pay online with my US Mastercard all the time. Telmex, CFE, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo1 Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 The last two months Telemx has not accepted by 3 digit code number. Also MercadoLibre. I've had to pay both OXXO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostlylost Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Paid Telmex on the mitelmex page using US Ccard this month with no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrod Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 I looked and looked for prepaid, US-style over-the-counter Visa or Mastercards to give as a gift (not linked to an account of my own) but came up with nothing. Both CiBanco and HSBC advertised them, but when I went before Christmas, neither had those options and the staff had absolutely no clue what I was talking about, despite having the printouts in my hand. Please let me know if you are successful in finding one. Around the holidays, I thought they'd be useful gifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are links to those cards as posted earlier https://financer.com/mx/tarjetas/tarjetas-de-prepago/ Walmart used to sell prepaid Walmart cards so you might ask at customer service.

jrod Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Thank you, but as far as I can see from the links, each requires the purchaser to provide details online to "open" the card including proof of address, email, after which the card (with the initial deposit included) is mailed to the address on file. There are commissions and fees per transaction, as well. I was hoping to pick up an anonymous MC or Visa. It does look like Walmart has gift cards, some with special-occasion designs.

Yes to get a real pre-paid Visa or Mastercard anywhere requires personal information. Far different from a store gift card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
