    If you have an ATM/checking account card, you can use that. All you need is a card that is endorsed by a credit card company. Good luck man, I hope you figure something out.

      If your parents say no you're probably too young to be having anything to do with tobacco! Enjoy your youth while you still have it 8)

        I agree...

        ...with Zero whole-heartedly.

        When you're old enough to indulge (and can afford it) you'll enjoy it. But, until then, like Zero advised enjoy your youth while you have it. There will be plenty of time for you to enjoy snus when you're older. Besides, I think you'll appreciate it much more when you're older, anyway.

            Buysnus and, AFAIK, also some other vendors accept bank-transfers.

            Cheers!

              True, but that requires IBAN/BIC-numbers which are a European thing.
              last I read other banks around the world were trying to implement the same transfer method but only in Europe does it have blanket coverage.

                I'm with the group on this. If your parents aren't allowing you to use a credit card for snus, my guess is that using snus is probably against the law in your area as well due to tobacco age limitations. Then again..there was no real age on tobacco use when i was growing up, so it varies. -scrh1

                    I would just go open a checking account at a bank in your area, and request a VISA/MC debit card. That's what I use to order all of my stuff online. As long as it has the logo, you can use it like a credit card.

                        Also, many grocery stores offer cards you can load with cash and buy with the Visa or Mastercard logo on them. There's also one card company in the U.S., called Green Dot, which allows you to do the same and reload the positive balance on the card for a few years while paying a small monthly fee. You can find a location nearest you at greendotonline.com .

                          Well, if they're still in a position to dictate terms to you, they're probably right. :wink:

                          That said, if you have any income at all, you can just go open your own bank account and get a credit card with a low limit - say $500 (and tell them you don't want any more!). Then don't use it unless you can pay it off right away and never, ever, ever, carry a balance on it. Prove your parents wrong.

                          If you don't have any income - get a job, mate! :lol:

                            Probably the best plan. Read about it here :
