Not able to buy battlefield coins

Hello. I just want to buy premium, but clicking to buy bf coins does not work. I hear the click ,but nothing happens. If i disable ea in-game overlay there is a red warning message bottom right corner saying : Error. Origin in-game is disabled.  If i enable ea in-game overlay again that message does not show.

    if your game is from steam,you have to open the in-game steam windows on 2042  setting in game. or you can just buy coins on ea , its can without buy a 2042 on EA

    @gjeewaytee, that is working as intended. 

    You need to have the EA app overlay enabled in order to purchase Battlefield Coins in-game.

    It's possible that a window opens when you hear the click and with the in-game overall enabled, but that it doesn't take fullscreen. 

    Please alt-tab when you hear the click, with the in-game overlay enabled, to check if there's another window waiting for you in the taskbar of your system.

    Nope. Nothing opens after i click it and alt tab. It's been like this for a long time for me so that's why I finally made this post. And yes off i have app in-game overlay enabled.

    @gjeewaytee, okay, that's odd.

    And how exactly do you own the game, is this via the EA app, Steam, or Epic?

    @EA_Leeuw So yeah... Enable in game overlay for bf 2042 was the solution. The thing is that this never crossed my mind because in steam in general i have steam in game overlay turned on, but for bf 2042 specific this was turned off somehow. Thx alot for your assistance
