Is it possible to have a new payment option such as PayPal. This is because not everyone have a credit card. Thanks

During the beta, amazon payments and itunes in app purchase are all we'll be supporting. More options may become available in the future, but that's what we've got for now, sorry.

If you have a Paypal account, you can get a PayPal debit card which acts like a Mastercard or Visa.

yea, you re losing many many many players (especially europeans), you NEED to put up the PayPal option asap.

I do have a credit card but cannot use amazon, since I'm european. :(

Great game!!!

what would be great is payment by phone. my cell service provider makes me charge 13euros every month and ii need something to spend that money on. i spend some of that on 3g but then i still have a lot left

all the calls, sms,mms, are free.

and yes i charge my own cell (before u say that im a kid that wants to spend his mommys money xD)

is this possible in any way developers? i remember when i played games like hattrick or that mafia game popular long time ago... omerta, they both had payment by phone for elite service


right now i have like 27euros on my phone

there is no option in the sign up process to change country... only the us is given as an option. This sucks alot, and I cannot believe the devs limited themselves to only the us market.

I'm very upset you chose only amazon. Make it available to all, choose paypal ;)

Ciss, please don't take it personally. We are implementing other forms of monetization as quickly as we can.

Well, you could always find a trusted member and give him for example 5$ +1$ ( for doing this ) ( for 30 platinum for example ) and he could buy it for you thrue amazom if you can't :P

The same problem is in Russia too,my 5 bucks was "eaten" by Amazon.com,they just told me my transaction was failed... Emailing them for a 2 days-no answer... Google checkout would be the better way...

OMG, after googling and trying all methods, I found a link within amazon which actually allowed me to sign up an account with my visa, and my transaction was successful!!!!!!!!!!!! No longer need Paypal.
For everyone else, I am from Romania, so I think amazon accepts CC from worldwide.
Sorry for being ignorant, just bought the campaign bundle (unlocked 4 more cities wooopie). :D

Just to make sure, you know that the account information being asked on the store page is your Pocket Legends account information, not your Amazon account, right? Your Amazon.com credentials will be requested on the next page.

Payment by sms will be possible soon? I think it would be great to pay this game via mobile phone. It should be added because this is smartphone game... mobile game. A lot of ppl have got free money to spend. If they dont (next month payment) they looose money for nothing. U can take this money to own pockets if you allow players to pay the game by this method.

Sorry for english xD

Has anyone had any offical confermation of this method of paymen. i have emailed support about this and all they say is that they are working on other methods of payments but do not say whether payment through mobile credit is one of them or not. i hope they do because i dont want to be at lvl 18 forever

Next month we will put in a couple of additional ways to earn/ purchase platinum. Our current thinking is Tapjoy offer wall and PayPal. Mobile payments are on the roadmap as well.
