Adding funds using a Comdata card.

I've only bought something online using paypal once and I linked my Comdata card that my job uses to pay us.
I guess since I linked it right then and there, the funds were deposited. I don't have a bank account. I guess you could call the Comdata card a prepaid card, although I was told it could act like a debit card.
I see that my funds are now depleted after buying the first item I've used paypal with. I've read that PayPal advises against prepaid cards, but since it worked the first time without any problems, I'm assuming that your system can accept Comdata cards. I need to send money to somebody and need to add funds using this card. I'm planning on getting an actual bank account soon, but I just want to send this using my card for the time being.
The card is linked to my account, will I have the option of just choosing the card when I am preparing to send the money, and it'll just withdrawal the amount automatically? I can't try it right now because I don't have the sufficient amount of money I plan on sending until I get paid.

you have to register your card at comdata.com before you can use it on Paypal. When you go to register your card on there, they'll ask you for a 5 digit code which is your employee ID. Its in the upper left corner of your pay stub. When you add the card to your paypal account be sure to list it as Regions Bank. Should work for you.
