A silver card is nothing. It is the gold card that lets you get on Xbox live.

No, Because Microsoft tracks your Xbox Live Account. So you have to pay for Xbox Live whether with a game card or if you pre-pay.
U can use a credit card or buy a Xbox live membership card
Yes.
Well first of all, did you buy a Xbox Live membership card? If yes it will on the back of the card.
An Xbox Live Gold membership should be fine for most situations, and is a big improvement over the default Silver package.
For a basic Xbox LIVE Silver account, all you need to do is sign up for Xbox LIVE using a Windows Live ID, or creating a new Windows Live ID. For a Gold account (required for online multiplayer), you will also need a paid subscription by using your credit card, or a prepaid card from a video game retailer.
