Prepaid credit card for Fizz payment?

redhead

According to Fizz website: You can use a Visa or MasterCard credit card to pay for your Fizz plans.
- including Visa or MasterCard prepaid cards which accept recurring payments.
Is anyone succesfully using a prepaid credit card to pay for their Fizz monthy plan? If so, any recommendations (which one, etc.)?
I was using the same credit card to pay for three Fizz accounts (me, my daughter, and my son), but Fizz has some protection mechanism and does not allow this anymore (unless you contact them to have them unblocked).
So I am thinking of getting a prepaid credit for each kid and pay their monthly plan with that prepaid card.
Thanks!

Other users have suggested KOHO.

redhead,
Fizz is supposed to accept rechargeable pre-paid credit card with an adress from a Canadian Financial Institution.
Please, contact, the Fizz customer service by chat to get better advice about it.
And, give us details.

MichelP, I asked Fizz what prepaid credit cards they accept / recommend. Will post back when I hear from them.

Hi Redhead

I see your post got released (from moderation?)

Yes KOHO is one you can use as mentioned numerous times in this forum. There is also a referral program for it you can join, but I am not a member.

Fizzy: Yes it has. My question is how did you even see my question before it was released (since I received your private message but could not send you one)?

Fizzy

Redhead, your question appears in the activity feed when you submit it (even though your question went to moderation).

Sorry my private messages are glitched and I haven't been receiving them. So instead of letting others think that I might be ignoring them, I simply disabled it.

And yes please share with us when you hear back from support. Thanks!

Fizz was not really helpful; the only thing they said is not the Vanilla card.
However, two users on Reddit said they use KOHO and it works. Here is one post with more details from Reddit:

I use my Koho prepaid card! I'm able to use it for Fizz, my old internet provider, my recurring transit payments, etc.
I really love it and I find it to be super handy. You get cash back, you can put money in savings goals where it will be separate from the main money that you put there and best of all there are NO FEES for activation, reloading, or every month like most cards.
If you're interested I have a code you can use and you'll get extra money back on your spending. No pressure though! It's 1z1sx100
