Here is a few quotes from them.
Visa and Mastercard Reject Medical Marijuana Purchases
"Visa has not changed its policy,” said a San Francisco Visa representative. “Our policy is that Visa cards should only be used in connection with legal transactions. We do not allow the Visa payment system to be used for any illegal activity and have banned illegal transactions on Visa cards.
In April of last year, American Express blacklisted the cannabis industry from its processes and put into place policies prohibiting transactions from occurring at medical marijuana dispensaries. Clinics would swipe patients’ cards only to have them declined; American Express explained later to dispensaries and media that new policies forbade customers to purchase medical marijuana with their American Express cards.
Loads of patients are hurt over their inability to purchase their medical marijuana at California dispensaries using a Visa credit or checking card. That’s because it is against Federal law for the credit agencies to finance illegal transactions, and pot is still a drug that is considered illegal at the Federal level.
I have spoken to a lawyer who states that the website can be launched to sell to those in states that allow the use of MJ for medical purposes, so I highly advise u my lawyer friend to stop spreading lies and falsehoods here over and over saying the same old dead thing.
It is 100% illegal to sell marijuana online.
Dang, that kind of take the fun out of the PharmaJanes and SimplePrepay nonsense.
