Hello! I know there are lots of threads to discuss this topic. However, I still have no idea which way will work. I am currently in the US. Would like to use my US credit card to subscribe a plan. However, the zip code field only accepts Canadian zip code format.
Can anyone kindly provide some instructions about how to use US credit card for the pre-activation/registration process?
E.g. Use US VISA to purchase a Canada prepaid VISA? Where can I purchase such Canada prepaid VISA online? etc.
It's quite urgent. Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you!

Got the update from the CSA, for monthly subscription, the only acceptable payment for pre-activation is to use Canadian Credit/Debit card. Prepaid credit card or voucher will NOT work.

Hi! Thanks! I have asked a friend to purchase a Vanilla Prepaid VISA Card for me. However, it is NOT working. I got the error message.

Thank you so much! I guess any prepaid credit card will work? I heard Vanilla Prepaid Credit card is a good choice? Thank you!

Hi! Thank you so much for the reply! Do you have any idea if any Canada prepaid credit card will work? I am also wondering if there is a minimum balance requirement for the prepaid credit card?
Thanks again for the help!

HI @bestofluck
yes, zip code is an issue. While US issued card can be used, but it has to tie with a Canadian address. Prepaid credit card is the only workaround, can anyone help to get you one? I am ot sure if you can get prepaid credit card online.
