PSA: Tackle warehouse and prepaid/rebate cards (like the humminbird rebates)

Hi all, friendly PSA here. 
 

I’m sure some of you will have done the Humminbird mega live rebate. This will also apply for any rebate cards or prepaid credit cards that don’t allow ‘recurring’ payments. If you’ve used myprepaidcenter before this applies to all of their cards.

 

Tackle warehouse comes across as a recurring payment to those card services. TW  makes a first charge for $1 and then another for the balance. When the prepaid card sees this it will decline. I’ve called TW twice and the card issuer once today to try to resolve and neither has a solution they will do.

 

So if you were planning to spend your rebate on some new gear, it isn’t going to work that way there.

This just happened to me, thanks for the info. You saved me a lot of leg work. Seems to be a narrow lane a person has to walk down to get these cards to work.

I ended up buying an amazon gift card with mine and put the balance on my amazon account.  I order enough from amazon for it to be worth it.  Also, JDM zillions are $200 there so just do that.
