How come Epic Games doesn't have Gift cards?

[palpatine]

(at least in Canada ) you would think if Epic would want to take on steam they'd start doing stuff like this?

Also when looking for a retail copy of Metro Exouds I can only fine Console ? so yea how am I suppose to get this game without using a credit card (which I won't even use on Steam, and no not intrested in doing the whole pre-paid visa thing either )

Because they suffer a loss on each card sold. Steam takes a 10-15% loss on Steam cards sold at some shops. Epic are already running on Razor thin Margins at the moment while they are setting up the store so more losses like this isnt ideal for them

well that might be true there also spending a ♥♥♥♥ ton buying up games so you can only buy it through Epic, if the whole point of this is to take on Steam would'nt that also be something to do is to start selling gift cards because if they don't and don't do other things steam does well they will fade away

But from the looks of it DLC content will be released by next year so I can get a Full Release of this on Steam later

Oh, they got them - it's just that they're SO 'exclusive', no one can buy them.

lol well I just don't see this Epic Exclusive thing lasting long on Exclusive alone they will need to expand to keep up with steam, Hell I would have bought a retail copy of this game but can't find it oh well I guess I can save up for Wolfenstein Youngblood instead

you can use paysafecard, but then you need to pay the transaction fee
Thats one of the reasons i am not going to support the epic store.
Throw money on publisher and make the customer pay for everything

Well they said the 18% cut is good for gaming and they wonder why people hate them.

Epic doesn't even have the most basic features, like a shopping cart, and you expect them to have gift cards!?
