IndieGala payment with Paypal (bank account) impossible?

Closed
Slowacki

So I've tried to buy this newest bundle with my PayPal account, with only a bank account linked to it and instead of redirecting to payment, Paypal redirects me to new credit/debit card registration. Unfortunately, I can't register, because it's some Dutch Maestro useless card, which can't be registered by Paypal...
Anyway, does that mean, that this bundle is only buyable with a card linked to the Paypal, or is there a way to pay with bank account linked to Paypal?

EDIT: Nvm, I've added funds through iDeal and PayPal allowed me to pay from its balance.

The price goes up in few hours, so I'll allow myself to bump this.

You can directly link it to your bankaccount but it takes a few days to clear.
However if you paypal gets hacked they can try to steal as much as there is on your account, it's better to deposit an amount from your bankaccount.

My PayPal IS linked to my bank account and I used to buy some bundles from IndieGala with it already, but now, for some reason I can't do it, as it redirects me straight to registering a new credit/debit card.

Not exactly the solution you are looking for, but if you can send money to friends and family using PP, you could try group buys to purchase the bundle, maybe during HH (if it gets it).

Well, it's just weird that I could buy some bundles with my PayPal that is linked to bank account and now it asks me to register a card. So, maybe I'm doing something wrong and someone might know what that would be.

IndieGala changed their policy: the card registered at PayPal or the one you try to pay with must be registered in the same country you are browsing from. If you live in another country or use proxy/VPN, then you cannot buy there until you register a new card from that country.
