I keep a prepaid AMEX Serve card with 5 bucks on it just for this type of thing. The credit card is used for age verification, as part of compliance with COPPA (Child Online Privacy Protection Act - FCC rule link here). It's to cover FB/Oculus' **** as far as complying with age requirements set out in this rule.
Thanks and again glad to have you here!!!
My guess is 1) because there is paid content, they want to make sure you can pay if you want to, and 2) maybe a form of age verification? Have to be old enough to have a credit/debit card?
