Lack of payment options

The only option for us(India) is credit cards, which makes it difficult to purchase since most people don't use credit cards here. So we have to rely on third party sites, which obviously costs more....

@Koochi-Q Nah man. When you do online transactions, DB requires you to enter an OTP(text in your phone) for verification of the transaction. However, there are some debit cards(very few) that do work as a CC. At least that's how it's here. I tried my debit card, didn't work, which is the same for a maximum of debit cards here. There should be a separate option of a debit card provided. Steam allows us to buy through debit cards and Paytm(domestic wallet), that's why it is so popular in India. Like @Wingmannedbro said, credit cards aren't popular everywhere. EA's brain is so thick that they don't realize(overlook) it. Planning to buy a lifeline edition. Well AMAZON, here I come.

@BaldWraithSimp Thanks for the explanation. I could of course google it, but would rather see someone explain it as I was not invested enough to really want to know the answer by looking it up myself (say that 2 times without breathing xD) *breathes*.

My DB at first didn’t have phone verification. Only since last year was it made to bolster up security. Luckily I could use my card all over ;D

Have fun with your angel winged medic! :P
