It should but all of them are different. Some of them haven't been processing and it's because they require you to use them somewhere else first and put in a pin. We can only take ones that don't have a pin set.

Hm, that isn't what I was lead to believe. Either way, the information isn't actually stored on Subeta, it's stored on braintree. Grace is going to make a way to remove the information, as well.

confused why people are so skeptical about this.
you probably have a better chance of getting your credit card information stolen at the grocery store or gas station than you do from this.

I don't blame people for being nervous about their credit cards, but!

  1. If someone manages to steal your iPad, what makes you think that going on Subeta and putting credits into your account is going to be their first priority. If they steal your iPad, they're turning it off and selling it immediately (sorry!)
  2. If someone manages to see your account information page, they can see the last four digits of your credit card number. These are the same digits printed on receipts when you buy anything, and that a person at a cash register has to type in when you purchase from big box stores. Having these displayed is not a security risk.

Again - I understand being skeptical about these kinds of things, but braintree is the leader payment processor (it processes more credit cards than Paypal, hence why paypal bought them ;)) and it takes security very seriously. We ourselves get alerts when braintree things a credit card has been used fraudulently, and can act on that very quickly (including very easily refunding the total amount).

If you have any payment methods saved to Braintree, you can remove them now. The option appears above the CSC amounts on the payments page, in a yellow box. :)

Still working on making sure they don't save by default, as well as giving you an option to explicitly save them.

there are lots of ways to get prepaid cards that you can load with cash. if you live near a walmart, for example, you can get a free american express bluebird card that you can load with cash for free at any walmart. and it works just like any other american express card, except that it's loaded with cash instead of using a line of credit. that's just one example, but there are a lot of options like that.

It took a few days of working with Braintree support to see where exactly we were going wrong, but Braintree will no longer save your payment methods by default. And within the next day or so, you'll have the option to save payment methods explicitly :)
