This blog post explains how to top up or pay for Giffgaff mobile service using an Eisy Virtual Dollar Card. Your Eisy-issued USD virtual card (Visa or Mastercard) can function similarly to a standard debit or credit card because Giffgaff accepts Visa, Mastercard, or PayPal.
Step-by-Step Guide
Establish and Finance Your Eisy Card
Install the Eisy: Virtual Card & Transfer app on your iPhone or Android device.
Register by phone or email, and if asked, fill out the optional ID/KYC.
Go to “Wallet” → fund using your preferred local method (crypto, bank, or mobile money).
Select “Create Virtual Dollar Card (USD)” → Eisy subtracts a nominal issuance/funding fee (around US $3–4).
Take note of your card number, expiration date, CVV, and billing address that Eisy sent.
Access your account on Giffgaff.
Make use of the Giffgaff app or website. Sign in to your account.
Depending on whether you’re paying for a flexible contract or adding credit (Pay As You Go), select “Top up” or “Order & Payments.”
Use Your Eisy Card to Make a Purchase
Choose between paying with a credit or debit card.
Enter the billing address, CVV, expiration date, and Eisy card number.
Instead of eliminating current methods, select “Update Card” if saving for automatic top-up or contract renewal.
Pay or Top Up
Confirm your monthly contract payment or select the amount to top up (credit or Goodybag).
Pay now
The Eisy card works the same way as a Visa or Mastercard.
Verification
Instant top-up or subscription renewal is confirmed by Giffgaff.
Your account dashboard will provide the most recent balance or billing confirmation.
Conclusion
If you live outside of the UK (for example, in Nigeria) and require a card that Giffgaff accepts, using the Eisy Virtual Dollar Card is a clever workaround. You can top up or pay for services just as easily as with regular payments, plus it gets around restrictions with local cards. All you need to do is develop, fund, and accurately enter the information.
If you prefer visual tutorials, Eisy offers video tutorials that follow a similar sequence, such as the card design and checkout processes for Canva and Spotify; simply substitute the Giffgaff payment form.
