Just a quick question, how can they tell if it is a pre-paid card or not?

For instance, some Walmart is refuse to load BB with pre-paid cards, however, the only way they can tell if it is a prepaid card is by human not machine.

Wondering is there any mechanism that square cash can tell whether it is a prepaid product or not.

Going to buy a prepaid card tomorrow and try

Square Cash

This still looks like it could be an interesting option if you have miles earning debit cards and want to supplement Venmo activity.

Should be a good tool to liquidate Gobank or PayPal Debit card.

I just tried using VISA Buxx card and it didn't work...
Unfortunately, they recognized it as gift card.

I just tried it with a USBank Mastercard, $300 sent successfully.
And I have a gold account now
Thanks op! You make my rainy days special.

Edit:
This might be the coolest thing I have ever seen in my entire life, it brings tears to my eyes, tears of joy. The first time I had to enter in a bunch of info like my b-day, and the recipient had to enter bank account info. But the second time, I decided to send the remaining $200, and I did not need to verify emails and the recipient did not have to do anything. The recipient just got an email saying "expect $200 in your bank account in 1-2 days".

You might want to be careful. Read the BBB's page on Square. Hundreds of cases on accounts closed and money held for 90 days (and over).

Linking to a Paypal debit card works.

Technically Square Cash doesn't require a normal Square account. This seems like a simple transfer of money. I can't see Square holding on to Person A's money and not sending it to Person B. If they don't want to transfer it for suspicious reasons then it obviously has to be returned to Person A. I could be wrong but feels different. Go slow.
