APEX COINS unavailable in some regions STEAM

i can't buy apex coins its says unavailable, my friend has steam region in France using Euro Currency  he was able to view and purchase them , but for me i'm from Algeria & my currency is USD , when i go to ingame store then APEX COINS it says unavailable , just to be clear our country never blocked or prohibited any game/ingame content we play on EU servers and since 2012 i never had issue buying stuff in ingames stores

i tried redownloading apex on origin but the currency their is R idk whats that and frankly i don't  want to spend money from my credit card because i have alot in my steam wallet

if anyone is experiencing the same issue please let me know , and thanks

    I have this issue, it's complete BS.  I want to give them my money and I can't.  What kind of business model are they running?

    @EA_Atic The issue still persists and we are in March 2021, i have missed on my events because of the glitch. the odd thing i can buy the legends editions with no problem, but only the coins are unavailable. Also, I live in North Africa and i have the same issue so it has to be regional. hope Respawn and EA look into it and not ignore it because the West market dont have that problem

    for people who's from Algeria 

    steam uses ($ USD)  for algeriennes 
    but EA (Origin) uses russian rubble for algeriennes
    so it will show unavailable for apex coins 
    i suggest you change your country on ea to United States and keep Algeria for Steam, works for me fine

    the best way to fix this is by adding apex coins bundle into steam store directly
