Is debit card an unacceptable form of payment?
I use the EA app, and when I tried to make a purchase it didn't have an option for debit. The page with payment methods said it accepted it, so I just tried to use the credit card option but with my debit card info, but the security code keeps telling me it's wrong, but I know it's not. I have put in my information in multiple times. I have closed and reopened the app. I have seen other people report this issue back with Origin, but I want more recent information that could help me.
If it isn't acceptable, I want to know so I don't keep trying.
Some payment methods can’t be used to purchase certain games, downloadable content (DLC), or virtual currency.
