Businesses take notice! Yes, anyone can start or renew a Microsoft subscription, like Office 365, using Gene Grawe Fund’s Five Back Visa. But, you have to do it through PayPal. The payment will fail if you just add the GGF Visa as the payment method in your Microsoft Account.

Do the following about a week before your Microsoft subscription’s renewal date:

1. Register a GGF Five Back Visa debit card on the FiveBackGift.com website.
2. Add that newly registered GGF Five Back Visa debit card to your PayPal.com account and make it the default payment method.
3. Login to your Microsoft account, select “Change how you pay”, then set PayPal as the payment method.
4. Wait for the renewal date to come around and Microsoft will automatically process the payment.

NOTE: If you have any funds in your PayPal account (i.e. a positive balance), those funds will be used before a charge is made to the GGF Visa. So if you want the whole payment to go on the GGF Visa, you’ll need to make sure your PayPal account has a $0 balance or you tell it not to use your balance.

UPDATE 2/23/2021: Once again, Microsoft took their $106.24 Office 365 annual subscription payment today using the Gene Grawe Fund Visa I set as my preferred payment method on Payal. Yeah!
