I have about $7 in my steam wallet.


I think at one point, one could buy Zen with that ... still true?

And if so ... how?
Hopefully I'll come back from my break; this break is fun; I play intellectual games.

I hope STO get's better ...

    Yes... at one time you could...

    Seems that was not in PWE's best interest, so they scrapped it.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    The last time I checked, you could still buy Zen with the Steam Wallet. All you have (had?) to do was open up the C-Store in STO while Steam is running. When you choose "Buy Zen," the Steam Wallet should be one of the available options.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    You can still buy zen with your steam wallet. I put down $5 for some dilithium for my fleet a couple of days ago.

    You probably need to have installed STO through steam. I know when I do it I just click the 'Buy zen' button in game and it gives me the option of using funds from my steam wallet to pay. I have never given PW my card details and I never will.

    Just launch the game through Steam and make sure you have the steam/community overlay enabled. When you go to purchase Zen ingame, you'll get a (defaulted) option to use your Steam Wallet along with the various amounts.

    A pop-up transaction confirmation will appear through the Steam Overlay, which is why you need to have it enabled for it to work.
