I am a newbie Android developer and today when I would want to subscribe to console.developers.google.com' Google Cloud Platform , the site asked me for a ( Visa or Master ) credit or debit card number . I have two question : Could I use ( Master or Visa ) Gift Card Number for that ? And if yes , what should be the minimum amount of that Gift Card ? Thanks
Gift cards are not acceptable for opening or maintaining an account. Gift cards are not linked to your identity. Google does not charge your credit/debit card, but does authorize a small amount to validate the card.
