How well are Visa Debit or Mastercard Debit as an alternative for paying online?
That wouldn't make any meaningful impact. They still get the processing fees from the vendor.
But they're much cheaper on fees than non-debit MasterCard and Visas?
Looks as if Visa Debit has about the same and slightly less fees than Visa Credit Cards.

Looks like buying physical gift cards is the way to go...
