Tips for successful payments at G2A

Why do G2A payments decline?

"Our system may flag the payment for safety reasons": Use your own card from a registered G2A account, try another device, or wait 24 hours and try again. Any reserved funds are returned automatically.
Incorrect payment details: Re-enter the card number, expiration date and CVV exactly as they appear, then pay again.
Card does not support online or international payments: Check with your card provider that online and international payments are switched on. G2A notes some prepaid and gift cards work only in certain regions.
Purchase over the card's transaction limit or available funds: Check your daily, weekly and monthly transaction limits and the funds available, including any G2A Plus fee in the cart, then retry.

G2A payment FAQ

How do G2A refunds work?

G2A returns money to the original payment method where it can. Refunds to a PayPal balance are usually almost instant, while card refunds can take from a few days up to 28 business days. Paysafecard and cash payments cannot go back to the source, so G2A adds them to your G2A Balance instead.

Does G2A accept PayPal?

Yes. PayPal is one of the global payment methods G2A lists at checkout, alongside cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Refunds to a PayPal balance are usually processed almost instantly.

Why do I see a monthly charge from G2A?

A monthly charge means a G2A Plus membership is active. It costs 2.49 euros a month plus taxes and fees where they apply. To stop it, sign in, open the G2A Plus tab in My Account and select Cancel membership. The benefits stay until the end of the paid period.

Can I pay with Apple Pay or Venmo on G2A?

Yes. G2A lists Apple Pay and Google Pay among its global methods and Venmo among its local ones. Local methods appear only for the region set in the checkout window, so check the region in the lower right corner if one is missing.

Do I need a G2A account to pay?

No. A valid email address is enough for a quick purchase, since G2A sends the item by email. G2A still suggests buying from a registered account if a payment is flagged, and an account keeps your keys and order history in the dashboard.
