Hi. Where are you trying to gift it? On Steam or on Gaijin Store?

I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to send 20 days of premium but it says He's using a different currency though we're both in the UK. Using the Gaijin store

Gaijin store

Do you use VPN? If your actual country of residence doesn't match with the currency, then you may get this error.

In my opinion, it seems to be not an error but a measure to prevent receiving gifts with lower value in other currencies. Neither one of our whole group used VPN - can't send gifts to anybody except my neighbor. That may be the unpopular opinion, but "the giving end" shouldn't be limited like that if the user uses currency of higher value to pay in comparison to the receiver.

Hi guys, the store team is aware and are currently looking into it. I will post here with any updates whenever they may come. Thank you for your patience.

It should be fixed now, are you able to try again? Thanks.

I'm also having the same issue at the moment so it seems it isn't fixed yet?

Yeah it's still not fixed for me either.

Are you using the Gaijin store here to try and gift: https://store.gaijin.net/

Or are you accessing the Gaijin Store through Steam to attempt to gift?
Sev07Sniper Apr 7, 2023 @ 1:56am 
I'm using it directly through the web browser.
