So i was looking into buying some golden eagles from a gift card my grandma bought for me, but whenever i input it in to the war thunder store, the transaction doesn’t pass.
Yes I have the balance to buy what I want, the gift cards 200 dollars and im buying 50 dollars worth of GE.
Yes I activated the card on the visa website, and its a debit card, and yes im in the world zone where transactions are allowed through the wt website(no separate world zone), i tried to buy something on apple cash for a dollar to test if it works and it did.
Please help, I don’t want my grandma’s good present to not work on what I intend to use it on.
so basically gaijin is weird about visa giftcards, had the same exact shit happen to me. the way is to hook the card up through paypal and buy it via paypal or cashapp if you have a cashapp card. you could also use google pay. other than that you are cooked, having a family member buy it through their card and they use the visa card irl would probably work better.
edit: or via steam wallet, although there is a HUGE fee buying it that way you are gonna lose like 10 bucks doing it that way.
okay, i set up the gift card on google pay and it didn’t work, im gonna download paypal now? Just to confirm the money on the card can be transferred to money on PayPal right?
cant buy through paypal? if so your pretty much cooked unless you try getting a paypal debit card and add the money to there or get a cashapp card and run the money into that. as the other guy said gaijin support may be the best option. or maybe doing cashback at a store or something and putting it on a debit card may work.
yeah, ill keep trying, i already sent a ticket at gajin support, waiting for there answer, i did the add banks and cards at paypal and added the card and it didn’t work, ill try to see if i can get a paypal debit card and add the money through there
