Will we be able to buy Bonds via Steam?

Will we be able to buy Bonds via Steam, I live in South America, to me buying bonds is way harder via Runescape normal ways, if I can buy via steam it will be 10000000000x easier to me since I can buy with cash steam credit or just go to store and buy steam cards

Any mod or anyone knows?

[Milkless Tea]

yes.

Yeah I saw about membership, membership to me isn't hard to get cause we have local stores who sells it. So irrelevant to me, the problem are the bonds

I wonder if Jagex realizes how this is going to open the floodgates to money launderers selling game codes on sites like G-two-A. If the street value of RS membership drops, it could crash bonds and keys and then the RS economy. Will be interesting to watch what happens.

I dont think that could impact the eco of the game
First, the bonds aren't code so that way of selling in g two wont work
Two the number of fraudster wont reach even 2% of total orders
Three, there are already people doing it, people wont stop anyway

I'm not quite sure what you are talking about exactly...

If Membership for RS3 becomes purchasable through Steam you'd need money in your Steam wallet or use credit card or PayPal. The Memberships wouldn't be codes, or at least I am fairly certain that will be the case.

And like mentioned here...

It has been happening over the years with any kind of game that has redeemable physical cards as long as someone cracks the code how the code system works or is involved in the black market. But nowadays the codes usually need to be activated which usually happens upon the purchase or you buy the code straight from the seller and they generate a code that will only work if there has been a confirmed transaction. When we still had GameStop here that was the only way you could buy the cards. All you did was say to the cashier "I need voucher code for X" and they gave you the code on the receipt. Bought Steam Wallet money if I had too much cash in my pockets this way.

So the only way to money launder is to use cash. And who the hell has cash these days?

And last but not least to my understanding you can't use the Membership voucher codes for Bonds so they are close to useless in the black market.

Currently there are no plans to sell bonds through the Steam store, you'll still need to buy them through the RuneScape website.

Pretty sure membership is purchasable through steam wallet, just bonds isn't

Isn't this the reason why Apple gave Fortnite the boot?

Curious about the potential legal implications. (Or lack thereof.)

Is it still a no on buying bonds with steam wallet?

I buy bonds through steam, its not a big deal.

Start runescape and click the membership-button in the lobby. its on the top.
then you select 1 month membership and continue to checkout.
at the bottom there is something called "frequently bought together", one of the options there is a bond.
add the bond to your purchase, then remove the membership.
then checkout and you can pay with whats in your wallet on steam.
Make sure you got the money b4 you do this, if you have to add money during this transaction it gets complicated.

wth why?

in game you open bonds menu and click buy bonds to go straight to bonds buy page, same for keys and membership, they can open to their own pages, you don't need to log out either, your purchase gets auto added, can use steam wallet for anything too, i add the funds on the fly and have no issues

[Xenos]

Look at it this way:

It might be harder to get them officially, but if they were on Steam, they'd have more tax on them and cost more.

If you launch osrs with the steam client (not runelite) log in, click on bond pouch, you can buy as many bonds and memberships as you wish and it'll link you to your steam wallet
