Q u o t e:
Ok, then, if I buy him an account do I have to pay for it in a different way since the accounts I have now are paid via my checking account, would it throw upa red flag to have an account under person 'x's name but being paid for by person 'y'?
Our system is currently designed to allow someone to pay for another individuals account. Therefore, the name registered to the debit/credit card does not need to match the name registered to the account.
Additionally, if you are planning on creating a new account for him to use, you may want to consider starting him off with a Recruit a Friend invitation so that you may both take advantage of the benefits of that promotion. More information regarding the Recruit a Friend system is available on the following link:
