For the most part Visa gift cards can be used anywhere Visa cards can be used.  I just used a Visa gift card to pay for pool repairs using the service person's Paypal account.  A couple guidelines from Visa for online purchases:
Online or phone purchases

• To make an online or phone purchase, you will need to register your card. You can do this by either calling the issuing provider, or by visiting their website. This information should have been supplied to you when you received the card. It may also be printed on the back of the card.
• When you make an online or phone purchase, the name, address, and phone number you use will need to be exactly the same as the information you provided when registering your card.
• If the information you provide differs from what was provided when the card was registered, the transaction may be declined.
• You can verify or update your information by visiting the card provider's Web site, or by contacting them using the toll-free number provided in your card materials.
