Updated on October 24, 2026

Can you pay eBay and Etsy with a virtual card?

Both marketplaces take cards at checkout, and a virtual Visa works online wherever Visa is accepted. Each seller ships on its own terms, and the checkout shows what applies to your country, so look at the total before you confirm.

Many orders are priced in dollars, so a dollar balance avoids paying a conversion on your bank card. Some merchants may decline cards under their own rules; the app shows right away whether the charge was approved.

How do you pay an eBay or Etsy order step by step?

  1. Open the Guarapay app or the Telegram mini app @guarapay_bot and issue the virtual card.
  2. Add up the item, the shipping and any import charge shown at checkout, plus $ 0.25 per approved purchase.
  3. Top up that amount with USDT or a bank card in your own name and check the balance in the app.
  4. At checkout on eBay or Etsy, choose to add a card and paste the number, expiry date and security code.
  5. Enter the name and billing address exactly as shown in the app, and ship to your own address.
  6. Confirm the order and check the purchase notification in the app.

How much does an order cost with the card?

  • Issue fee, paid once: $ 10 on Standard or $ 100 on Premium; no monthly fee.
  • Top-up fee: 2% with USDT on Standard and 1% on Premium; 5% with a bank card, on both plans.
  • $ 0.25 per approved purchase, taken from the balance with the purchase; a declined purchase is not charged.
  • Monthly spending limit: $ 10,000 on Standard and $ 100,000 on Premium.
  • Shipping, import duties and local taxes are set by the seller and the customs of your country, and they are not part of the card costs.

Who pays shipping and import duties?

The checkout shows the shipping cost and, for some orders, an estimate of import charges; what is not included may be collected at delivery by the carrier or customs. The card does not change those charges.

If you buy several items from one seller, the order is usually a single purchase, which means a single $ 0.25; separate orders from separate sellers are separate purchases.

What if the order is cancelled or refunded?

A refund goes back to the card that paid, as long as the seller or marketplace issues it, and it returns to the balance in the app. How long it takes depends on the seller and on the card network.

The fees already paid on the top-up are not returned by a refund, so check the item and the seller’s return policy before you buy.
