Buying rFactor 2 Without a Credit Card?

[Ho3n3r]

Hi

Is it possible to buy rFactor 2 with a debit card? I do not have a credit card, so is there any way to do it without one? I would like to buy the game, but I haven't found a way yet.

Thanks.

If it's a Visa Electron or similar, you can pay online, or open a PayPal account with it.

PayPal and Moneybookers are both accepted. Both can be filled from various ways, so a credit card should not be needed.

Thanks guys. However, it is not possible with my bank. Seems I will wait a while to see if options open. Cheers for help though.

Just wish I could do an 'old-fashioned' eft, but clearly not.

You should be able to transfer money to your PayPal account and then pay with the balance on your PayPal account, I believe.

Thank you. How much does paypal cost for 1) Annual Subscription, and 2) Per payment?

Can't find anything about its charges via Google?

It is free of charge I believe. I can't remember ever paying for it, but will check to be sure

Just checked, and can't find anything about provisions, anual cost and more of that. Seems indeed free of charge, as I suspected. Can't remember ever paying anything for paypal, and am using it for many years now.

It's not completely free of charge, otherwise it wouldn't exist

I think you only pay for personal transactions, sending and receiving. Don't remember paying extra for purchasing stuff, and there are no running costs.

I thought the provision was done via the receiving end, so if you sell something. Could be that personal transactions between persons also are charged.
I always used it for buying stuff, and with that, I never have paid a provision I believe.

Thanks for the clarrification Senad

Good to know. However, when I try to sign up to PayPal, it still asks for credit card details. Am I missing something? My debit card does not have a CSC code, which is required.

Thanks for the great help BTW

EDIT: OK so I was being stupid earlier, I was not required to add CC details right away.

So now I went to ADD FUNDS under the MY ACCOUNT tab, but the only option is TRANSFER FUNDS FROM A BANK ACCOUNT IN THE UNITED STATES.

Really...? Is that my only option? lol

So turns out our bank has just recently released MasterCard cards, so I got one and it worked first time. See you on the circuits soon
