Is it safe to buy through steam via a MCB visa debit card

Well I dont have a credit card, so I was thinking to buy through the debit card, but I don't know if that's possible, will the transaction be completed. To be honest I'm worried that steam would deduct all the money from my account lol. I've heard there are numerous websites as well that offer games through easypaisa and such services. How safe is that? Should I get a credit card? should I go for the easypaisa one, or is debit card a safe option?

Thats not the right forum for discussion as this is a market place forum, however I have been using UBL Wiz Internet Card & Standard Chartered Visa Debit Card since past 5 years on steam and other steam key selling websites and I have never faced any problem or extra charging, Debit cards has same visa logo only difference is credit card is a loan system while debit card deduct money directly from your account. Currently I`m using silk bank visa credit card also steam doesnt deduct anything except your purchased games amount or market place items price, there are some bank charges for transaction but they are very minimal (around 3rs extra per dollar you spent.

MCB Visa Debit Card works as session based while UBL Wiz Internet, SCB Debit Card & MCB Lite Card are always activated for internet shopping.

How to Activate MCB Debit Card for Online Shopping


Dial MCB Helpline (111-000-622)
Ask the support representative to enable your debit card for online shopping
Provide any requested verification info
And that’s it
Your MCB Debit card will be activated for online shopping for 15 days.

Your transaction will simply be rejected. and yes you can have unlimited session time on your debit card. But its not advised to do so. Since u are connected to your main account. alternatively you can order MCB lite and use unlimited session on it and transfer amount u wanna use in it before u wanna buy anything online. and then use it immediately.

MCB lite act as a separate account. and transfer fee from your main to MCB lite is free.

I was gifting RP to my friend on league of legends with mcb lite card, while gifting I received this error "We apologize, but your card has been declined. Please contact your card provider if you believe this is an error." Received SMS from MCB that my card was charged and TXN ID, received nothing from riot, no email no RP or anything. I have contacted Riot and provided them my card details, they are now requesting for transaction ID that was sent to my email. Problem is i didn't receive any email from riot probably because I received an error while gifting so the transaction counted as not completed. The amount also shows in my mini statement as "POS Sale via POS OFFUS". I have made successful purchases in past in league of legends (purchased RP 2 months ago with mcb lite card and same league account) What should I do now?

HBL Debit Card

Hello.
I want to know if hbl debit card is good for online payment.I'm an ACCA student and I have to pay exam fees to ACCA online in pounds.
I'm currently using UBL Wiz card to pay fee but they are charging me 6-7rs per pound extra.It makes about 800-900 rs extra per paper (my exam cost 132 pounds).
Does HBL debit card also charges these?I just want to pay exam fee.

[MENTION=141233]Umair Anjum[/MENTION] any international transaction is going to cost 3.5 percent extra on the total amount. so yes hbl debit card would also have these extra charges.

[MENTION=141233]Umair Anjum[/MENTION] your friends probably didn't notice that. every online transaction is subject to 3.5percent extra charges. they include these charges in the conversion rate etc so people don't notice it much.

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
