Paysafecard is a method of online payment, which does not require personal information like credit card or bank account details. It is based on prepaid vouchers with a 16-digit PIN code. You can buy them at local sales outlets and make online payments. You do this by entering the code at the site you’re using. You can’t pass paysafecard codes by phone or mail.

Paysafecard is available around the world with a few limits. Your country determines the partner sites and the scope of services. A personal account to upload PIN codes is available in most countries. In 2018, the card was accessible in more than 40 countries. In some of them, it’s been available since as far back as 2000. Skrill acquired it in 2013. Two years later, UK-regulated online payment processing provider Optimal Payments Group took it over. After that, it was rebranded to Paysafe Group.
