Hello there @kbagsxx ,

 

If you go on to EA Help, they state at the top:

"In the meantime, you might not be able to connect to online modes, buy games on Origin, or log in to your account. We’ll get you back in your game as soon as we can."

 

I would just wait until their online services come up again before trying to purchase something again.

 

Happy Gaming and Stay Safe!

origin won't let me buy a game

I'm trying to buy the Sims 4. I have tried on both the origin website and the installed app on my Mac. Every time I try to click buy on the Sims 4 nothing happens, it doesn't even say there's an error just nothing happens. I have reloaded my app, the website, logged out, everything !! I don't know what to do now I just want to buy the Sims 4 lol

@The_other_Rare OOOOH I did not realise this was a site wide issue... I've only just installed Origin, mostly use steam but played the sims 4 trial last night, which I cannot finish the Games library is broken apparently? I saved a card to my account and now appears to be working? Should I wait do you think? Sorry absolute noob on Origin

Yes, I would wait until Origin Online Services are fully restored before trying to do anything with Origin.

Hello there @LJess2001 

 

It looks like Origin Online Services were down at that time and are back up now. Try signing out of your Origin Account and then signing back in to see if that fixed the issue.
