    Yes I do it all the time just go on the website on the back of the card and register it. And check how much what you are buying cost with shipping before buying the card because you can't refil it.

    You usually need to be 18 and have a bank account. If you have that, sure you can buy an amazon gift card and use it.

    Both paypal and Amazon require backup payment methods or bank accounts I believe.

    I mean, how many 18 year olds don't have bank accounts ?

    yes go to any walgreens or CVS and buy a "greenDOT card" , you load it with cash at the register and then go online and use the code on the card to transfer the money into your paypal.
