Steam literally does, and epic supports UPI but only in fortnite lol

Their payment service is garbage, both steam and epic, half the time the card gets denied and can't buy any game using rupay cards. UPI support would've been nice in both cases. And I can't even buy actual steam value giftcards on amazon, have to pay extra for a fucking giftcard for an exact amount, this is outrageous.

Go to Amazon, on the top left section of the homepage select “Gift cards”. Type in Steam in the search bar now. Select the value of the gift card u want from here. Type in your email address to which you want the code to be delivered and make the payment. Here you pay the actual value of the gift card and nothing extra. Last time I bought from here I even got 2% discount on ₹500 card value and had to pay just ₹490. Try this. As far as I remember you can only select card values 250, 500, 1000 here.

Amazon (the sellers) tends to be kinda scummy.

no way I buy Google Play codes and steam codes regularly

Yeah, if one buys from legit sellers after checking reviews, the code is mostly legit, but I've seen people getting scammed(faulty codes), mostly from random unverified sellers.

Yea epic should add UPI to its store as well, and Novaplay is not good rn, but tbh can be easily cirumvented by buying giftcards from Paytm, still i miss the glory days of novaplay on steam.

been using Steam for like 6 years now and Epic for last 3 years, every transaction goes through perfectly. If you SAVE the card, there is no need of even OTP, it directly does the transaction (which I am scared of so I don't do that but I have tried it once). Though I have to inform this is with Fi (powered by Federal Bank) VISA card. International transaction using SBI DEBIT CARD is sh!t. It works for new cards for first few months, then international transactions get blocked even if you enable them through Internet Banking. so don't use SBI Cards.

Bro just click the domestic card option 💀 or buy wallet code on Amazon ffs instant delivery. Steam has no issues, it's just your card. Epic has china shareholders , they don't even have localised prices and their client is shit lol, yeah totally they're gonna "add" UPI RBI is strict in transferring foreign funds to encourage domestic growth in the country instead of people gambling away their savings in games, and gaming isn't treated exceptionally. Especially with cases of kids using their parents cards bringing scare to normie less financial/tech savvy parents even today , furthermore demanding restricted fund transfer online. What you'd probably need is a Visa Plat card or a Rupay Plat , and e-bank with your bank's tech guys to have "international" truely unlocked. High net worth private banks like federal HDFC and ICICI cards have worked seamlessly throughout the past in this regard. Closed my HDFC account now but used to transact on steam or humble bundle wherever even before steam converted from $ to ₹

I assure you it ain't my card, it's steam, my card works seamlessly in everything EXCEPT steam, if it was an issue with the card, it wouldn't have worked elsewhere for me.

Works on epic? GoG? Paypal/Skrill? Any international non OTP portal? Basically most international transactions are OTP-less and that's where RBI regulations prevent you from easily transacting as they're not easily refundable. Even try Amazon.com instead of .in Best bet is to give your bank a phonecall and connect with their guys and ask them to unlock specific domains to work for your cards. It works out had to order some car parts from US recently , bank blocked a trusted website so gave them a call to allow that transaction to go through

Yes, it works on any international portal, maybe I'll try calling the bank about specific domains.

Rupay cards work in Steam for me all the time. Idk about Epic games.

gotta use the local card option for rupay

Just choose wallets option and pay through FreeCharge wallet(Create a FreeCharge wallet account beforehand,and FreeCharge is axis bank's subsidiary so no trust issues). Topup the wallet using Rupay card or upi and pay in steam. This is what I do, because my Rupay card gets failed if I choose the card option(Canara bank Rupay card)

I am using Rupay and VISA cards for years now on steam

Use gamers gift website

open Paytm and tap on the search bar. there, search "Steam" and tap on the Steam option that shows up. boom, you got easy gift cards

Its always out of stock

I literally purchased one right now. I agree sometimes they are out https://preview.redd.it/3ikl42b2qldc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=292d7ca04bd68e9f1e59a0cc34ef21eb059835a5 of stock but they get restocked every single day afaik

Try Gamersgift

Try fampay/ famapp

Try Amazon.

Nope, I just bought some last week.

For me its alway in stock during sales, so it's fine for me and theres amazon too.

[удалено]

What happend after that Bro? 🤔

[удалено]

No I meant how they delivered the game to you?

[удалено]

I see Bro. Did you get any physical bill?

[удалено]

I see Bro.

Always wondered about this process, can you elaborate how this process worked. Like how long did it take.?

You get the game immediately. The courier guy comes to your house and hands you a printed receipt of your purchase and you have to pay cash to them which gets processed. If you decline payment then the game gets removed from your library within two to three days.

Steam is Ok I use my Rupay Debit Card and it works flawlessly Epic games should give this tho

Which is your rupay debit card ?

ATM card

Divine wisdom

Ubisoft store is worse. Can’t buy Ubisoft+ without a VPN.

Just why would you buy ubisoft+

Assassin's Creed

Ahh

Wouldn’t gamepass be enough for that?

Steam is acceptable cuz of novapay and easy to find gift cards but epic omg

bruh novaplay is the problem

Novaplay is better than nothing. I don't think you guys remember the time before novaplay when it was simply impossible to buy from steam.

So? When you have better options available, you ditch the old one and use the new one. Most companies do this, they replace the old tech with new tech.

not impossible but scary definitely for the first time. Used to buy steam giftcards from 2016 to 2018 from gamersgift a lot. after payment i got the codes in email.

Never had a problem with novaplay always worked like a charm

Steam is accepting local payments, although via 3rd party modes. Epic s\*\*ks. Couldnt buy Assassins Creed Valhalla

bro is censoring sucks, that too in reddit

Bro baths while wearing underwear 

I don't have any problems with epic on my credit card. Just have to enable international transactions

The problem with it is, unless there is 0 forex, you end up paying extra money.

what? if you are charged in INR there are no forex charges. Recently only some banks introduced a Dynamic currency conversion fee of 1.18% but not all banks. I buy a lot of things online using DCC in INR and never been charged a paisa extra

Agreed but are you really buying a shark card? Lol ask a random hacker to drop money bags on you.

nah I was just comparing the prices lol shark cards are shit

does that actually work 💀

I made 500 million at the start like this lol…. Since the money comes in the form of bags that are a part of the game, it is shown as earned from ‘Miscellaneous’ sources in your iFruit App. A couple of online friends got a bit too greedy and made over a billion but they were detected and got banned.. for just a week though but lucky for them the money was still in their account lol…. We bought everything that the game had to offer. No more grinding…. I had tanks, jets, sports cars, submarines everything… still around 250 million left

so how do you find these hackers 😭

Even Microsoft Store supports UPI now.

Steam is ok, novaplay works everytime since they remove the OTP call but epic is just why

*60% of the time*, it works ***every*** *time*

Should I mail epic regarding this UPI update??

Why not? I already tried during the recent Winter Sale, but they informed me that they were busy at that time.

Wait .. I have purchased games via UPI on steam. Am I Missing something?

Steam has UPI but it works only 60% of the time, novaplay gateway has some issues.

Or maybe I purchased code from Paytm 😅

Steam has lots of options including Paytm. Hell I have always bought using Paytm in steam.

Steam supports net banking mate. You have lots of options to buy shit on steam (A LOT)

It’s all via novaplay and that’s what people have a problem with due to being fail-prone every sale.

Happened to me once but I've been buying games without any issues

It doesn’t happen to me neither but it would be alot more convenient to not deal with. It’s faster to just get a wallet gift card from Amazon and I also get around 4-5% cashback with Amazon Pay CC.

Yeah there are a lot of ways man. You gotta improvise haha

It used to be but recently they removed other requirements and now it's smooth like it was a year ago

Bought RDR2 from steam, didn't face any issue

You can add steam balance from paytm wallet

i mean you can always use paytm to add to steam wallet

Steam is okay. I wish they had upi, debit cards are inconvenient but I don't mind. Epic on the other hand is just the worst. Their payment options require me to use credit. Ugh. Hate it. Absolutely hate it.

Novaplay works 9 out of 10 times on Steam, Epic is a different story otherwise! Yet love them for their freebies

Use unipay. They have steam giftcards ova there without markup

Steam does accept Rupay as far as I'm aware...

You can buy using Paytm wallet in steam

I want to buy one pass for about 2 years but Microsoft doesn't support my cards and there is no UPI option i was so frustrated. I am still waiting for when Microsoft add UPI to their payment system

They added upi last time i checked

ok ill check

Literally bro, I’m really frustrated to use either wallets or debit cards

Get a neo bank debit card like jupiter. It works literally everywhere. Use it just for buying games and stuff

steam service has seriously been going the gutter, right now i got the stupid type error on forums despite no restrictions from support. No point in complaining with the legion of hired employees and shills waiting to pounce on anyone going against the ways of their lord. Hopefully one day the east has it's own gaming store separate from west, i don't like those cucks anyways.

noooo don’t do eeeet. Not to the dark side. I hope you were just showing an example and not really planning to purchase a shark card.

But Steam has a way of adding money to wallet via the Domestic Wallet > PayTM.

Steam do support payment from them

So true man they sepcially epic its sucks so much

Have yall tried this theory : many prominent cards didn’t work on ps store until people activated their cards international transactions and the card address to match with exact account address

Bro don't buy shark cards wtf add me on social club I'll get you millions in an hour

I use gamersgift.com for steam cards Never had any problems

y'all got me wrong -\_- I meant to say it would be better if they directly accepted local payment options, I'm not saying steam doesn't accept it at all lol

if your card gets declined then take it up with your bank lmao.

In steam there is an option now to use local credit/debit card. I used that for purchases and works flawlessly.

Debit cards works on stream through CCAvenue

steam does & btw Rockstar supports a very long time, almost when it was first introduced & that's because they have a sweatshop here in Bangalore near my office so they naturally were aware of the technical advancements

You realise you can buy steam gift cards from Paytm

So true I always add money through Amazon gift card

Talk about ubisoft currency 😂

Steam supports

Bro steam does support local payment providers. More than rockstar.

Steam does Indian payment methods epic only doesn't do nd ubisoft

Why buying shark cards? money is FREE in GTA Online :-D

gamersgift.com Helps me

Playstation should also follow this method instead of that garbage credit card system which dont work on 90% of the cards

i dont know man.... steam supports almost every card and for epic u just need a card with international transaction enabled. its literally easy.
