Thank you, yes I only use the one-click process for ebooks. I've turned it off for all other orders.

I already had a credit card assigned as a one-click payment method so all I had to do was add a gift card to my account and now one-click payments automatically get deducted from the gift card balance first. I never use one-click for my regular orders so only my eBook purchases will be paid from the gift card.

Thank you so perhaps I didn't need to set up another address. I found the explanation for it all a bit complicated really. Oh well I've got it working and that's the main thing.
