Even though you can pay for a Kindle ebook with a gift card, you still have to have a US credit card attached to the account. So if someone outside the US had a valid card number, he could pay for Kindle ebooks without actually putting a charge on the credit card.

I'm not going to share my credit card number, of course. But I am going use VisaBuxx to set up a limited value debit card. This card would have about $5 on it, which is okay because it is only there to satisfy Amazon. The Kindle ebooks will be paid for with gift cards.

I used this program about three years ago, and don't remember what the fees were. My bank is a member of this program, so they should be minimal.

P.S. If anyone wants to try it, the address is www.visabuxx.com. It might take me as much as a week to get the new card number.
