For USA customers who don't want to use bitcoin and who don't possess a Visa card:
Go to Wal-Mart and purchase a Wal-Mart Money Card (not a gift card) with a VISA logo on it. It can be used for international purchases.
My experience was relatively painless. The WMMC (issued by Green Dot) will cost you $1 at the store and you load it with something over $100 at that time. I recommend $35.00 over your estimated purchase amount to cover administrative fees and the monetary conversion.
WMMC/Green Dot will deduct $5 for the first month's fee (for the privilege of carrying it in your wallet). Note that you can not use the temporary card for an international purchase but you can use it online for USA purchases and in WM stores. You must wait for the embossed card to arrive in the mail to use it to make an international purchase. Mine took about 10 days to arrive.
Then go online to
www.walmartmoneycard.com and "activate" the card and your WMMC account.
I used mine to purchase a life-time license of AnyDVD HD. Note also that WMMC will charge your card a small fee (mine was less than $5) for the monetary conversion a few days after the purchase. After that you can either continue to keep the card (pay attention to their fees: $5/month to have it, $5 to put money on it, etc.) or you can go to your online WMMC account and close it. If you choose to close the account, WMMC will then issue and mail you a check for whatever is left in the account.
