Hello dear friends of the steam,
I am "wal" in Latin America, more precisely from argentina.
I am taking this matter to suggest to the team steam, add a new payment method that is accsesible for all Latin America, most Latin Americans do not have credit card or paypal account, therefore we have access to a lot of steam and original games we have to resort to non-steam games. My suggestion would be to add www.dineromail.com (Sorry if it is spam, I do not think so, but if so edit moderator) is a PayPal-style system, but in latin america very easy and fast to use! Hear their views, I believe that if we could create a payment method more "friendly" with Latin America people would get more sales and got us the ability to access original games!
Greetings and thanks for the space.
PD: Srry for mi bad English

I agree that if this service is highly popular in Latin America it would be a good idea to add it as a payment method.
However, PayPal is world renown, available to everyone whichever language you speak (except maybe Klingon), and does not require a credit card, as most seem to be so reluctant to have (or too young). A bank card (or debit card) works great with PayPal. I do not understand much of Spanish, but it seems to work on the same principle as PayPal, so I don't quite understand how it would be different. Go to paypal.com and select Argentina as your country, and there you go. A Latin America friendly PayPal...
I guess forcing you to use PayPal is not the solution either, but I am sure it is less trouble for you to create a PayPal account than for Steam to negotiate with them and make sure they're right and then implement that payment method.

I agree, since in America there are no many people with international card, I thankfully have an acquaintance and buy it myself with card.
Www.dineromail.com Agree

wetafek, I don't have an "international card" or a credit card and I can still buy games from Steam using PayPal. I simply use my debit card.

stop trying to prove the man wrong, either way, if it will benefit steam with more costumers, why not give it a try?

If true, operating in Argentina but still need a credit card to load balance the account and then buy the games.
sry to revive the issue, but there is some official response on the suggestion?
if it could create more accessible methods of payments for Latin America without credit card, would be a great impetus to encourage the use of original games.

More ways of payment always opens up more ways of fraud, but that's a necessary step for new forms of payment. I would agree that more steam payment methods for those in South America would be useful. [ENGLISH/INGLÉS]
Más formas de pago siempre se abre más formas de fraude, pero ese es un paso necesario para las nuevas formas de pago. Estoy de acuerdo en que más métodos de pago para videojuegos de STEAM en los de América del Sur sería útil. [SPANISH/ESPAÑOL]
