Go to the website yourself, dont use the one steam gives you. As that one is more ecpensive due to steam tax

Everything going through steam costs 30% extra.

25.000 eagles on steam is 166 ( or something like it ) and directly 113 euros .

You can definitely use Steam wallet funds to buy GE. Just launch the game with your Steam-linked account, go to the hangar, click on the GE amount you want to buy at the top and the Steam overlay will pop-up to do your purchase. Easy enough, though as noted you are paying extra to Papa Gaben.

Not fully true...
Only certain packs are actually more expensive on steam then website itself.
And only the most expensive GE bundles on steam everything else is not.

Back in November I bought a year of premium while it was on discount; it cost me $49.whatever to buy using GE purchased with my Steam wallet. But people who bought directly from Gaijin paid something like $38, so, yeah, Steam is more expensive. Oh, and I DID compare the different GE bundles at the time, concluding that the GE/$ was the same for all the bundles.

That said, I think if you can avoid purchasing GE, and instead pay directly for a vehicle pack, the price might be the same as paying through Gaijin's site with a credit card.

So has i said... Only specified bundles or GE amount are actually more expensive on Steam then website. OF COURSE i do recomend always to check if there is actually a diference or not between steam vs gaijin website itself.
