As far as I know Pay safe has issued a statement claiming that paysafe is now fully supported in greece again. I can now use it on steam and wargaming(along GoG, the only sites I use it on). GoG still does not accept it though. Is this on paysafe's side or GoG. And if its GoG, then why not?
Question here if I may, You guys don't use visa or master card or mastero whatever version of it is there? Debit Visa?

I noticed a lot of people using these alt options that seem to always have issues with all sorts of sites but never try to use the accepted payment methods. Trust issues with major card companies? always wanted to know about it :P

As I understand it, Sales dont go on for ever. If we could get to the bottom of this soon, that would be swel.

I guess it's because we're generally not very used in paying with plastic money; until recently, not many people had a card anyway and i know many people who are afraid to use a card over the internet nowadays. Whatever the reason, it's bound to change sooner or later.

Paysafecard IS an accepted payment method and not some dubious "alt options that seem to always have issues with all sorts of sites". I'm using Paysafe for years already and never had any issues.

Not a trust issue with card companies or banks, but a trust issue with security of some online shops. Remember when Blizzard got hacked? The hackers got the stored credit card data. Playstation Network? They stole CC data there too. People got hacked on Steam because of their stored details. With paysafe you don't have to worry about that.

Then there's the problem some people have with transaction fees. I don't have any transaction fees with my paysafecard.

These are the two main reasons why I prefer it over credit cards.

Gog claims they don't store your credit card data. I dunno about that. I use PayPal.
eh, guys, what about the situation with paysafe? I have a 10 euro card that awaits someone to accept it and GoG is losing ground.

What about it? This is the forum. None of us know or can do anything about it. If you want an official answer from GOG, make a support ticket, while keeping in mind that this is Sunday evening, so you probably won't get a reply until Tuesday at the earliest. You could try to PM a blue, but I'll wager none of them know or can do anything about it right now either.

How much is the card you're trying to redeem? If it's too small an amount (I believe under $5.00 equivalent value) then that could be the reason.

Last time I poked GOG about this they told me the payment was failing on my end. Different computer/connection didn't solve it and paysafecard support ignored me when I contacted them.

Wait, you actually bought something on Steam with paysafe eg. within the past couple of months? Maybe I should try my luck again...

Here is a list of retailers Paysafe is currently allowing to receive payments from Greece. Not entirely sure why GOG isn't supported. Retailers aren't usually the ones blocking payments from customers.

Also, I'm certain GOG offices are grounded quite sufficiently.
