How can I get my credit card? I work only in this biz and have no work certificate..:confused:
What do you do to get your credit card?
I need to buy content, domains, etc and have no chance if I have no credit card.. :(
Someone?
Thanks.

The easiest way would be to ask your bank. Most banks can offer you a credit card (Visa, American Express, ...) linked to your account.

getting a credit card is probably on the easiest things to do in the world .....i get sent about 100 letters a month asking me to signup with a credit card....half of the time they dont even ask for bank details! lol

I got offered one by my bank after about a year, didn't even need to fill out a single form (!!!)... my savings balance with that particular bank isn't exactly high (floats around $1k for living expenses), but I guess it also helps that there are a lot of consistent deposits, and my balance is always positive. :D
alex2002, just ask around, these days getting a CC is TOO easy!

Man I cant stop people from mailing me info on getting credit cards. I have 3 right now and will not get another one. I bet I get over 20 aps. a week.... AHHHH
As far as I know, the only documentation a bank needs is your passport and a letter with your home address on it, one posted to you.
All the best

if you run this as a legal business and if you have some income, there's no problem to get a cred card...

That's depends from country you live. Personally for me to get cc was difficult because of low legal income. If you don't have any legal work bank can refuse to open Visa/Mastercard. One of my friends works in bank so he helped me with this, I just wrote fake income form and he approved it.
The virtual cc (you can use it only for online purchases) can be solution (not sure), or maybe try to look in foreign banks requirements for cc.

if you have paypal, you can get a CC through them,
I did and it was surprisingly easy to get.
I can buy all my needed supplies off the net with it
(content, domains etc.)

Yep, I live in Argentina and here I need a legal work to get a credit card.

I will try with paypal or a foreign credit card.

Yeah sounds like Paypal is your best bet, but many of the vendors you mentioned will take checks or moneyorders from your bank. Good luck
Why don't you create a PayPal account :D
