Vythonaut: Here's the recent newspost about Adyen: https://www.gog.com/news/new_card_payments_operator_on_gogcom

nightcraw1er.488: Thanks, I hadn’t even noticed that.
You're welcome. Adyen seems to be a big player in the market currently. I recently read that soon enough they'll become the main payment processor of eBay. But enough with the gossip! :P

Too bad Mastercard seem to have a monopoly in this country. Not that I would be able or willing to use a Visa either. I wonder if they've split Europe into a Duopoly in which they say "you get country A, we get country B"

I already have Children of Morta, so this deal doesn't make sense for me, but if it lets more people play this fun game, I'm all for it :)

rjbuffchix: Not a fan of the pro-breeding depictions in the gameplay trailer to this game. So I will say No Thanks, Visa :)

Asbeau: I don't understand your complaint, can you explain it?
He is apparently against the act of breeding. Maybe he believes the world is overpopulated, or he belongs to an "alternative lifestyle" demographic that frowns upon reproduction.

BlackThorny: Gog also has Wallet, and as I understand buying Wallet credit with Visa should also be applicable for the promotion.
The one rule (other than registering in the link beforehand and obviously not canceling the transaction in any way),
is storing the Visa card information for the duration of the promo
- Unless Gog gets Cracked / these details Leak during that time, you should be safe. Then you can remove it from the store.
Does anyone know for sure if buying Wallet credit works? There is a game I am planning on buying but it isn't out until the 30th and I don't want to miss this promotion.

Crisco1492: Yes, I read that. It should not take fourteen days to confirm email registration and/or submission of codes/content. Most websites do it within fourteen minutes.

twillight: Well, not if they want to check if you stick to the one person, one card, one game-key policy.
Sorting out 50K applicants is not that easy.

The whole thing might involve some charity-fopunding too, and some system-testing, so yes, it is a nuisance, but it's not entirely bad.

For me, there was a game I was hesitant to get, but with this it's basicalyhalf-price, and to push the price over 25$ included the DLC, which definitely means charity, so it's ok for me. I have plenty of games at hand at the moment anyway.

(OIbviously screenshotted the whole thing in case of trouble.)
I fail to see, in this day and age, why a company cannot just send off a template email that says "Thank you for registering". That's all I'm asking for. Otherwise, if there ends up being a technical issue down the line, I'm out of luck. The company could just say "You never registered your email address."

I'm not saying "Give me a key". I'm not saying "Confirm that my purchase meets the requirements". I'm definitely not saying that I regret my transaction.* I'm just asking GOG and/or Visa to confirm that they have received my email address. They've already got infrastructure in place to prevent people from registering the same email twice: a confirmation notice that pops up if you enter an already-registered address. Setting it up to send a confirmation email as well should be child's play -- and, let's be honest, it would make more sense from a security perspective. Not only would it enable GOG to make sure that a valid email address was actually input, but it would owners of incorrect email addresses to let GOG know that something's wrong.

*I bought Divinity: Original Sin 2 and the two Icewind Dale games. I'm already ten hours into the the former, and it is proving quite fun.

Last time I kept my visa data on a website, it got hacked and I lost 900€.

No thanks.



Beside, visa brand is banning some websites like gab.com because of nonsensical political reasons. So, they can go to hell. (or whatever inhospitable place).

Yet-another bizarre marketing stunt from GOG in recent memory.

Let's see:
- The promotion started a week prior to the announcement.
- There's seemingly no way to tell if there are codes left to redeem at checkout.
- Non-USD currencies and amounts are only listed on the terms & conditions page.
- You have to register your email address on a dedicated page for no apparent reason.

I'm not against the idea, but this implementation is just bad.

There was a Polish GOG Blue post that Google translate claims to be

Hello! Wallet top-ups also count :)

What is a complimentary code? Is it a code to download/redeem the game? Is it a code for existing or future DLC? Is this a game with micro transactions? Is this a game that you need to pay to play or some online only pay mode?

Or do you have to buy or have the GOG version of the game to use or apply the code? Do I need to buy the game with the 25.00 on the one time purchase. Seems Vague.

Tomorrow I should be buying NMS, and children of morta is actually sitting on my wishlist; despite this, however, I'm still thorn about giving my card details.

Even if I would do that, is there any way to remove such information at a later time?
