as i said more payment methods.

I am ENERGIZE from the netherlands and its annoying that we can only Pay with creditcard or paypal.

why you might ask..

in the netherlands and i think the rest of europe we dont have and use creditcard some rare of us do but 99% DONT.

Also why can we buy zen with more payment methods and even pay in steam BUT NOT SUBSCRIPTION..... i mean EVE did it and some other games to...

Paypal is buggie for me atleast, i have my bank linked and anough money to buy lifetime and it still dosnt work wich is super annoying sometimes it even asks for creditcard wich is even more stupid


SO what do i suggest
payment methods:

Ideal (its really easy to use)
Skrill (dunno what that is tough)
Paysafe (this will be a good one)

and just add some more you know... i think it will allow more people of europe to enjoy the game to its fullest

so when will we get our old drops back :wink:

    I lived in the Hague from 2011-2013 and had a Maestro debit card from my account with ABN Amro (Dutch bank) and couldn't sub with that. I then opened up a Paypal account and linked up my Dutch bank account and card and payed through that with no problem.

    Holland has a wierd system that really only issues Maestro cards as Debit Cards and if you want a Mastercard then you have to apply for a credit card. The rest of Europe isn't like that, you can get visa/mastercard debit cards as your basic card in most other European countries. Shopping online without a credit card was a real problem for me in Holland, unless it was with a Dutch company (through iDEAL) or a company that accepted Paypal. They get around the problems associated with Maestro in Holland by having iDEAL implemented everwhere in the country, but iDEAL is not a centralised electronic payment system but a collection of technical agreements between banks and transaction processors.

    I have never used credit cards, only debit cards and have subbed and bought Zen with them while living in the UK, Australia and France (sometimes with Mastercard, sometimes with Visa, never with Maestro).

    They might say "Credit Card", but Debit Cards work just the same for subbing (as long as they are Visa/Mastercard).

    But Maestro is not great and isn't accepted for loads of things worldwide. Just get a Paypal account and link it to your bank account and card...... it worked for me in Holland. Otherwise apply for a Mastercard credit card from your bank.

    God, it would be a Bliss if I could be able to buy monthly sub with Paysafe card

    I'm not able to buy subscription with Debit/Credit card neither

    In matter of fact why is this NOT an Option for paysafe in the first place?
    why PWE doesn't have store sub cards for their games, and if they do why they are not available in my country?​​

    Thanks for the info, that answers my question.

    It would still be a nice and simple QoL change if they would simply change the wording on the subscription options page from "Pay with Credit Card" to "Pay with Credit/Debit Card". Many popular online shopping websites have adopted that labeling method for many years now due to confusion. In many countries the distinction between Credit & Debit is like night and day due to the Credit Card & Debit Card providers available to them. But in the US and a few other countries the two are often viewed as the same thing to most people due to the fact that most of the providers available to them offer both options, and next to none offer Debit Card only services.
