Ok so I was walking through Gamestop, and I happen to notice somthing. A Google Play Card, if anyone knows the Android Play store symbol, it's the little colorful arrow pointing right. Anyways it was on the card and the values went from $20, $25, and $50. I was wondering if I redeemed the card, if I could use it to buy plat on Pocket Legends. Thanks:)

To be honest, I've never actually touched a play card, I do all of my purchases online via my Debit Card.

I think it works similar to Apple iTunes Cards, so yes.

I kinda want a full walkthough of you playing that game tho.

I don't mind spoiling myself. Especially after looking at the L4D2 characters featured in RE6. =)

It's fine, don't take the risk for me. I'll go and buy a $20 one and see. Btw if it does work since 2k plat is 89.99, if I buy 2 20's and a $50 one, it would work right? $0.01 change. Or is there some sort of tax..

I have done this before and it does work. When you purchase platinum, it will take you to the Google Play store. Go up to where you can select from credit and debit cards and change the payment method to your Google play balance. Before you have the money in your account, click menu on your device while you are on the Google Play store. From there, click redeem and enter the code on the back of the card. Once you do that with the desired amount, you can purchase your platinum in the way I described above. There is no tax that I know of, unless you live in a different country than I do, where they have some kind of government tax on digital purchases. Hope this helps :)

Thank you:) I live in U.S and I'm pretty sure there isn't a tax.

Ul get taxed.

And yes the cards work. If u plan on getting 89.99 of plat its about $97.

I bought a $10 card to buy 9.99 of plat and couldnt cuz total was 10.75. Etc. So buy xtra :p
