How Can I Make ZP in Canada?
I posted this in technical support in crossfire... but ill post here just incase i might actually get some real answers here.
I dont know if this is the right section to post in, because i dont use the forum to often.
But heres the thing. I live in Canada, Toronto area, and i cant find anywhere to buy ZP.
- I dont have a credit card. (so cash only)
- I tried coinstar, but Rixity option only available in USA.
- I called EB Games, and Game Stop or whatever its called, and they said they dont have any GameStop cards.
- I dont know if there are any ultimate game cards available, but if there are and i can use them in z8games.com then i will.
Are there any other options available? (that dont include credit card use, that are in Canada, and that dont require me to drive to the US)
Please Help!
p.s. Why the hell are the servers in canada, yet there are no places to buy ZP with cashh...

Have you tried doing some of the quizzes? Some of my clan mates told me they got around 1k~2k ZP.
I live in Quebec and I just used my credit card. The majority of crossfire players seem to be American so us Canadians don't get all that great extra stuff. -

Yes, i have tried, ive gotten 575 ZP from one of the surveys, but i tried like 5 more, and they didnt give any... -
I believe, you can buy the prepaid visa or mastercards at some bigger shopping locations (shoppers drug marts, Costco, Maybe Walmart). Make sure to call ahead and ask before you go! .
These pre-paid credit cards work just like normal ones, with a small activation fee (2ish dollars), and should work fine with paypal or another funding source we use. I have not used one personally for ZP, but i've used one before for an online purchase and it worked fine. -
For security reasons pre-paid credit card don't always work with all payment systems. They're similar to using a throwaway cell-phone, and tracking the end user can be made virtually impossible. If you get one, try PayPal. Find the option "I don't have a PayPal account" ..."Pay without a PayPal account" - sorry, I forget what it's called. Unless PayPal and Click & Buy changed something with account setup, you won't be able to set up an account at either place with a pre-paid card.
If you do have issue and can't get it work, you can always go buy something else with it. -

Ok i found it, here's how it works:
PayPal require you to go through their Expanded Use verification process in order to use ANY card.
It means that they will charge you a small amount and next to it there's a 4 digit code which you must then enter into the Paypal site.
Most gift cards work much like retail merchant gift cards, serving as
redeemable gift certificates and those card do not send you statements nor they allow you to check for your transactions online.
So if you get one of those, you won't be able to get your 4 digit code and you'll be stuck.
However, if your chosen card allows you to check your statements, then you can use it with Paypal.
The cards that work are more likely to be called "Prepaid Visa Card" NOT "giftcard".
Just incase anyone else has this problem the answer is here.
Also, you can buy the Prepaid Visa Card at a local "Real Canadian Superstore" or "Metro"
or
If your looking for a MasterCard, you can get them at a local "ShopersDrugmart"
