I was wondering if any ADULT processors allow those?

I, for one, don't have any way to accept those that I know of. I also don't accept e-checks anymore (because of chargebacks). And I NEVER allow anybody to snail mail me money for a membership because I figure it would open me up to legal problems if the feds set up a sting and had an underage person mail me money that way and get in the members area.

Anyway, does anybody know if adult processors allow pre-paid credit cards? Or is it too high risk?
And yeah, I still think that a protected members area that requires a credit card to purchase a membership to is the closest that any of us can come to keeping kids out of a paysite.

Of course there will always be exceptions. Just like in the old days of brick and mortar, there was always some kid who would figure out a way to get a subscription to Playboy (or just steal their dad's copy). But asking for ID at the convenience store was still the accepted way to keep kids from viewing it en masse
