No option to buy with Steam Wallet anymore?

tigerofcachtice

Hi guys, I'm a LTS, just asking to help out people playing through Steam.

It used to be you can buy Zen through Steam Wallet. The option appears if you launch the game from Steam, then when you go to [BUY ZEN] from the Zen Store, it'll give a Steam overlay. Now it takes you directly to the Arc Billing website. That seems to be a recent change.

Was the Steam Wallet option removed as a business/logistical decision or was it removed as a bug please? I'm just helping Steam players out, please let me know either way. I don't think it's a deal breaker, but I want them to have the option to buy a discount FF slot now until Dec 30.

The Steam Wallet might be temporarily disabled; they had a situation pop up a couple of days ago where credit-card info on some accounts became viewable when other accounts refreshed their screens. It was advised at the time that anyone using Steam remove their payment information temporarily, for maximum security.

and when I looked it up for someone else, I was getting problems back to 2010. It seems to go every so often, theres also a mention probationary period for buying zen with steam, due to NW .​​

Looks like Steam Wallet has been restored now, other Steam users noticed that before I did, and I just confirmed for myself.

Thanks to anyone involved, or maybe it really was just a temporary glitch.
