It is not, no.

 

The only way would be to use a visa/mastercard debit, which would still take it from your bank account in a similar fashion, but you would need the visa/mastercard debit card to do the linking.

Hi there,

so you can setup automatic top ups with prepaid accounts with a Canadian visa debit or credit card. You can add a card of your choice through self serve. Both PAD and PAC are accepted. If you wish to use an international card, you must setup a call back and have the card registered first.

If you setup pre-authorized top up on prepaid, youโ€™re granted additional data depending on your prepaid plan which is different to the autopay discount you receive with postpaid.

If you check self serve, it will tell you how much bonus data you will receive if you set it up. If youโ€™re new to Koodo, you can check out the Koodo prepaid plans on their website and it will state the amount of bonus data for automatic top up per plan. ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘

I wasnโ€™t asking about discounts, but about the possibility of paying through PAD for a prepaid plan.

So, again, yes you can. Canadian visa debits are accepted for pre-authorized debit payment (PAD).

Again, if you wish to use an international debit card for PAD then you have to setup a call back and have the card registered with Koodo.

A benefit of setting up automatic top ups with PAD or PAC is that you also get free bonus data. Figured you would want to know that as well.

For more details, refer to the link. ๐Ÿ‘

Hi โ€‹@Artem Art 

You can use a credit card or Visa/ Mastercard debit card to set up an automatic top up for your prepaid account.
