YES, BUT DON'T DO IT! You have far less protection from fraud than you do with a credit card. If you have a debit card, you must have either a checking or saving account. I would suggest you set up a paypal account and use this for Internet purchases. Once your money is drawn from your account via debit card, you will have very little luck getting it back if your purchase isn't satisfactory.

You definately DON'T want to use a debit card on the internet. With a credit card you have protection if someone uses it without your authorization. If someone gets your debit card, they can take all your money and your just out of luck.

Yes, you can, but it is a little bit dangerous cuz when paying with a debit card you are sending the number of your bank account, and somebody can easily steal it. It also depends on a good reputation of a bank issuing the debit card, and its ability to protect its clients' accounts.

Probably but debit links direct to your checking account .
1 low life hacker , and they could clean out all your checking account .
Use paypal or a credit card , puts a barrier between you and scum thieves .
