If you won't be collecting Social Security when you enroll in Medicare, you will be able to pay your monthly Medicare premiums with a credit or debit card. Not sure if a prepaid debit/gift card would also work.
And if you ever need to meet a minimum-spend requirement to earn a sign-up bonus on a new credit card, you can pre-pay several months' worth of Medicare premiums in a single payment.
