Add a different payment method

Postby mrblack » Sat Sep 02, 2017 9:44 am

Hello! Add a different payment method. I can not pay via paypal or card. Please, add Amazon pay, WebMoney, Skrill, Payeer, Payza, QIWI and Bitcoin.
Or add Salem bundle on humblebundle, bundlestars or indiegala.

I would love to pay for Miner's Pack and Farmer's Pack. But my card is not working with paypal. :cry:

It boggles my mind how you can use any of the mentioned methods, but not paypal.

bitcoin is pretty easy to use and set up for anyone, probably wont happen since most likely you would be the only dude using them but yeah some of the more stable crypto currencies like bitcoin i could see being useful for some folks overseas in various situations.

Why can't we have Xsolla and pay the way we want? The Other Game has it as the second payment method and it's really cool.

prob because that is all wierd euro **** and as an american company there are pain in the ass factors involved in setting up payments with many of those companies, i do think bitcoins however would be a quite easy alternative as it accessible to everyone, takes 5 minutes to set up a wallet and there are now numerous ATMs where you can exchange bitcoins for currency or you can link it to a legit bank account now in this country as well.

This is true and also why you can't just put a new payment method from nowhere.

Running the game ain't a kindergarten too, eh?
Let's set a shop, but you won't pay, and you too, and you weird guys won't pay too. And then we'll say players don't pay enough.

all wierd euro ****

Oh, this game is for mericans only? Since when? I've missed something.
I think i also missed a time when paying with bitcoins became easier than paying with my bank card.
Get your head out of your... dreams.

A digital product operator in 2017 (as well as 5-10 years ago) can't excuse like that.

You say the other game has Xsolla yes but I don't think you understand it took them months to get that finalized.

Did i said "i don't realize" or "xsolla should be available tomorrow"? I'm in game development and i know what it takes to implement a payment system. I also understand that letting players throw their money the way they want is a must.
