Payment options for Origin in India

[sam_greec]

Dear Origin Developers

I have been greatly entertained by many of your games, especially the Mass Effect Triology. I fully enjoyed using your Origin store and client service. I am writing this post to question you guys on what  are the payment options available for Indian customers of your site. I see only the option to pay by credit card during checkout. As you must have mostly encountered, payment issues on the site. I was a recent victim as well. I tried exploring other payment options and found that paypal could be added, but still can't be used. So I would kindly request you guys to add additional payment methods for the Indian version of your website. I would highly recommend that you guys add Paypal,Debit Card modes ( personally I think these two are big). 

I hope you guys greatly improve your service here in our country. 

Thank You

Santhosh

Hey,

I'm facing the same issue too. And the link only shows available payment options for the US.

Tried making a credit card purchase but it hasn't gone through. Origin lets me register my PayPal, but it doesn't show up during checkout. I think everyone here uses Credit Card or PayPal for international payments. So it's not even like PayPal isn't supported in India.

Would really appreciate if EA could check on this.

Cheers.

I have the same issue just like other users from India. I contacted support about this issue; they said that they will forward my suggestion to dedicated team to look into it.

Lets see what happens.

Many of us have faced this issue and it has been posted multiple times on this forum but nothing changed. So, I tried contacting origin on Facebook but haven't received any reply. Try to contact them on social media, maybe if enough people raise this issue, EA and Origin will do something about it.

Just change your Region to US or UK and then add paypal to payment methods but Rupay debit cards will not work there only VISA Mastercard American express and 1 more I don't remember
