How do I sign up with paypal - learnertester - 05-24-2016
The site won't accept my mastercard because it gives the error "Merchant does not accept Maestro". So I need another way to pay, I thought there was no paypal but on the instantcert website it mentions "paypal users". Please help so I can get started studying. I have 7 clep and dsst tests to study for.

1) View http://www.paypal.com , signup and enter in your credit card info for payment
2) Find a coupon online for a discount, I think it's $5/month discount (For InstantCert, not Paypal)
(a discount is a discount, if you need more than 1 month, it adds up)
3) Sign into InstantCert Academy and pay for the monthly subscription with the PayPal you just setup

Huh??? I already have a paypal account. I also have a discount code. There is no paypal option on the instantcert payment page, only an option for a credit card.

I'm missing a step 4: View InstantCert and if you want, email them as well with your request.
Since that's the way to cancel the membership for PayPal users, they should be able to assist in setup of the account as well.
Note: Isn't a Mastercard Maestro a Debit Card and not a full usage MasterCard? I guess that's why it failed.

Well it's my card I got for my new local bank account. It doesn't actually say maestro anywhere, just the normal mastercard logo. Previously I had bank of america which used visa. This could be problematic in the future and I'm considering using a different bank if this is going to cause payment issues... nonetheless, for now I want to just go ahead and pay with paypal. I had already emailed them, instead of giving me the answer they replied just asking my name. I replied to that and still waiting for an actual answer.
Do you know where to go and how to pay for instantcert with paypal?

Still no reply about paying with paypal, not from the forums here and not from the email support which just decided not to answer my question or reply. I guess I'll have to go with speedyprep since I can't sign up here.

Never mind

Maybe a pre-paid visa would get you there.
