Paying for ESO plus using steam wallet
Hey guys, I want to know if it's possible to pay for ESO plus using steam wallet.

The usual recurring subscription (using a credit card) keeps failing to complete this month, even though my card is fine. I can add funds to steam wallet just fine. So I'm hoping I can pay for ESO+ directly from steam wallet. Is it possible?

To Sub ESO Via Steam Wallet is really simple
:- Add Funds to Steam
:- Remove Credit Card/Payment Information from Steam
:- Restart Steam {sometimes not needed}
:- Log in ESO {from Steam} {Make Sure to have a Linked ESO Account for Steam}
:- ESO Store Page -> ESO+ -> Become a Member
:- Steam Overlay -> Sub from Wallet -> wait a moment
{Make sure to Allow Steam Overlay in Steam Settings}
:- After you can Cancel the Steam Sub
{eso will expire after sub ends - Make sure to get your eso+ first}

there was discussion for problems last month, if i remember correctly solution was to cancel subscription, remove payment information, wait until next day, reenter payment info and subscribe again or something like this...search forum to be sure.

Yeah I had ESO+ resub issues last month as well, took an entire extra day for the resub to process which actually made my account to go off ESO+ for 12 hours or so.

Nothing has changed same credit card. account etc. Weird.

I'm trying to do the same thing. It keeps taking me to the recurring sub page. I'd like to sub with my wallet, but it's not giving me the option or taking it out of my wallet. Keep getting the failed payment notice too.

This worked. But some steps are not needed.

1. Make sure you have enough funds in your steam wallet (enough for the subscription plan you want)
2. Delete credit card saved information from your steam account details.
3. Cancel the current (failing) ESO+ recurring subscription.
4. Restart Steam.
5. Apply ESO+ subscription again (funds from your steam wallet will reduce)
6. You will now have ESO+ again.

None of these options work for me unfortunately. I just have $15 chilling in my wallet for no reason.

I recently renewed my eso+ via steam wallet took a few days to come through.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
