Thank you for your question. Bell does not accept prepaid credit cards for Preauthorized Payments.

Hey there @Lyns

Welcome to the community and great question.

Below you will find more details on one time credit card payments. 

Additional details by payment type: Credit Card Payment

  • Not accepted card: MasterCard Debit
  • Accepted cards: American Express / MasterCard / Diners Club* / Visa Debit / Visa (Max $2000 / transaction, prepaid credit cards accepted for one time payments)
    • Note: *Diners Club not supported with Corporate Accounts.
  • An amount of $6 or $7 is frozen for 3-7 business days the first time a credit card is used (or each time a prepaid credit card is used), after which the funds will be released.

Let the community know if you have more questions.

Good Day.

You can not pay your bill with a Vanilla prepaid credit card . You can pay your bill online by logging in your financial institutions application or website & setting upBELL ONE BILL - 14 DIGITS as a payee.

You can also set up a pre- authorized payment or one time payment with either your bank account details or credit card on MyBell.

You can use any of the following methods of payment:

  1. Pre-authorized payments from a bank account
  2. Pre-authorized payments by credit card
  3. One-time bank account payments
  4. One-time credit card payments

Thank you for reaching out.

Take care.
