Hi.
I'd like to buy T3D, But since i have a debit card it's really hard for me to buy online stuff. There is paypay / but some how it doesn't aprove my card!
I came across few site that i really wanted to buy gamedev tool & was force to leave it due to my card. Although there was $ in my account.
I want to ask, can't you please provide a EFT system in garage games please? or just provide me with your banking details?
Or anything fuck! i want to start my game development with a proper game engine :)
Thanks for your time

@Dewaldt - I've notified our support to see what can be done. Hold tight. It's the weekend, so this may not be addressed immediately

Since you have a debit card, you should be able to associate your checking account with PayPal and pay directly via that mechanism. I am unclear on the policy for PayPal and non-Visa/MC debit cards.
Otherwise, E.B.'s option of purchasing a $100 Visa card at a store is a good one. Make sure it is one that you can "refill", however. The transaction will post a $1 to ensure that the card is valid and then the $99 when it is verified. Most refillable cards will post the $1 back to the card, but that may not happen. So the price may end up being $100 instead of $99 though this method.
The checking account link in PayPal is the best option in your case.

Unfortunately the business fees for many providers are too high to justify for an extreme fraction of a percent in sales. Before we had PayPal as an option, I would see this request every six months or so, often from countries which were much more careful in providing credit cards and getting their citizens in debt. Since PayPal was introduced on our site, yours was the first request on this since direct payment from a bank account is an option.Since you have a debit card, you should be able to associate your checking account with PayPal and pay directly via that mechanism.

Miskien moet net skryf in Engels sodat almal kan dit verstaan, maar wat ek weet, ek is net 'n noob.
Maybe you solved the problem some cool way which got lost in translation ;-)

Yeah, we really do not have a mechanism for someone else buying the engine for you. It would end up being their license. Places like Walmart, gas stations, etc have pre-loaded credit cards for purchase. But the bank account associated with PayPal is the easiest.

1. Nobody seems to know what I talk about when asking to buy a cash passport. One said to me we don't take bribes WTF ... SA SA :(
2. Went to the bank, they said my card won't be able to buy online if they require "Credit Cards" etc!
3. They said. If Garage Games may be able to provide me with their banking details, I can easily pay with my internet banking facilities.
But the only flaw comes in where do I download it if I pay in such route? since this app is direct connect to the system.
4. If somebody else buys this engine for me, I might not have the license & I'm fuck for my game development phase :(
5. PayPal seems to be my last route :(
But i sincerly hope that Garage Games can asssit me other way round, by not working through that paypal system :D
Thanks

What's wrong with PayPal? I've used it many times before with no problems.

Hi Randy. It keeps on rejecting it :( I will go tomorrow to the bank & ask if they can't upgrade my card to a Credit card :)I'll do anything just to be able to buy the software :D

@David: How would a child be able to gain access to the Torque products without the parents credit card... I doubt they will go out and buy a pre-loaded credit card, It seems counter-productive to place restrictions such as that.

@Dewaldt: Good luck, hopefully you can get this sorted out.@David: How would a child be able to gain access to the Torque products without the parents credit card... I doubt they will go out and buy a pre-loaded credit card, It seems counter-productive to place restrictions such as that.

Debt cards should work as long as you have a proper debt card. (ie: Visa/Mastercard symbol on it. Otherwise it would simply be an ATM/Bank card.)
They do accept checks but since you're ages away form them..
Buy a Visa card at the store or pay an elder to purchase it for you.
