This is a reply from a paypal mod on this forum >>>
There are a few different things that will impact pre-paid cards being used on PayPal. Pre-paid cards aren't prohibited on our system but not all different types of pre-paid cards would be compatible with the PayPal system.
As you know, when adding a card to PayPal, we may require a customer to complete the verification process on the card that was registered. This may not be possible with some pre-paid cards as the card issuer may not provide the facility to view previous transactions so it could result in difficulties when trying to use the card.
Not all pre-paid cards would have been issued by Visa or MasterCard so this would also be a contributing factor with being able to use the card with our system.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
