Also i wanted to know where a site asks for a credit card information, instead of credit card information, can i put my debit card information, or when a site says about credit card, it mean only a credit card

As long as there is money in your account =D
Visa is very widely accepted.

Can you? As it is a Visa, the answer is yes. But should you is different. You do not get the same type of protection when using a debit card as you do when using credit.
You can protest a charge and it can be chargedback to the merchant if you are dissatisfied. This you can not do with debit.

Yes, as long as it has a mastercard/visa logo the merchant will accept this as a credit card, but it will be debited from your account

No, usually websites prefer Credit Cards. But you can search for websites which do accept debit cards.

Debit cards can be used like regular credit cards. Just be sure you have enough money to cover the purchases, to save yourself some embarrassment.

Hi,
You sure can.
Found this great Amazon shopping portal: http://www.on-amazon.net
Bought all my Christmas presents there, low prices, great deals and delivered free if in the UK
You WILL find what you're looking for there.
This portal rocks - what do you think?
