Really what I’m asking is, “Should this website offer a $24.95 MC package so players can have a package that a $25 gift card can fully purchase?”
To me this seems like a good business move on MWO’s part. Every time a player uses a $25 gift card an amount of $3.10 is left on that card. That $3.10 will never be used for MWO as you cannot use two or more gift cards to buy an MC package. The balance cannot be used for the next purchase of MC. That fact is what started this thread. That $3.10 left on the card is not just a loss to the customer/player but also to MWO, because they will never see it.
By offering a $24.95 package for say 5350 MC, MWO benefits from the extra income and the player benefits for the added convenience. Both win.
Weiland – Thank you for your suggestion. Is that like a bank pre-paid card? I didn’t see it referred to in MWO’s webpage to purchase MC.
Zerberus – Not sure what you mean by:
“…yet here, and nowhere else, it`s somehow suddenly a problem that PGI "has" to solve, even though the supposed "cause" of the issue (25$ gift cards) are going away forever soon, anyway.”
Are Visa and MasterCard (and others like these) going out of production? These are the gift cards to which I am referring. Not UGC or any other vender gift card. BTW, I’m not whining. I’m just hoping to solve one small problem. For both MWO and its customers.
Here’s the poll link if you think that a $24.95 MC package offering is a good idea (or not).

Have not used it myself, but from what i read
- Purchase paysafecard at your nearest sales outlet. You can find one with the sales outlet finder.
- When you buy paysafecard, you can choose between the following amounts: 10, 25, 50, or $ 100.
- Pay with paysafecard at webshops by simply entering the 16-digit paysafecard PIN.
The US MC buy page doesnt have paysafecard but the british for example has it.
In theory it should be possible to pay on the United Kingdom page(should be in english), it includes a fee of 4.04% for different currency.

Wieland – That clears things up a bit, Thanks. But, I’m still hoping that our Canadian cousins will be kind to their cousins to the south and offer a $24.95 package here in the states (and every else that it would be useful to have offered).
Thanks again

To try to answer your question partially. People do receive gift cards as, well... as a gift. So if you have one (a $25 Visa Gift Card) and you want to buy MC with it, you are going to end up leaving $3.10 on that card.
It just seems to me to be a good business decision to offer a $24.95 MC package. I mean, the customer is already there on the site buying MC and MWO is leaving $3.10 on the card when it could go into their pocket. And at the same time, by offering that $24.95 package, make life for the customer/player a little easier and less frustrated.
Just my two cents

Don't those gift cards have activation fees? Whereas I can find UGCs for sale (not "on sale"- regular price) for face value...

Please be careful though, if you have or are buying up UGC’s, you need to use them right away. They will no longer be honored after a certain date in August (sorry, I can’t remember what that day is). You will have to go to their website and see if it’s stated there.
If anyone else would like to make a comment on having a $25 offering of MC, please do. And thanks in advance.

Most bank cards are now either a Visa or MasterCard as well and they don't let you pull more than you have in your account at the time if they are set up correctly. Everyone over the age of 18 should have one. Most of them don't charge you a thing either if you make X number of "Pinned Purchases" a month (usually 4-5 and it doesn't matter how much it is. Take $20 out of the ATM then walk over and redeposit it.)
Where I live no one will accept personal checks so it is cash or credit card and the bank card is perfect.
