sometimes those cards don't work for some online stores because there is no address associated with the card, so card verification systems may fail.

Every time I've bought one of those cards, it has me go to a website to register/activate it (set a PIN, associate it with my email address+password, and most importantly, assign it an address and phone number) before it'll work.

many online stores i've seen/used actively block those cards due to fraud/chargeback/etc reasons
