Hi all,

I always purchased with PayPal, but I can't do it anymore., since yesterday... I keep getting this error when logging in to PayPal regardless of where I log into steam "Get your one-time code.
Something went wrong. Please try again."

I removed PayPal payment method from my account and now the option to select PayPal isn't even there when I want to add the payment method.

Itt worked fine a few days ago. Does anyone know what the issue is?

Appreciate any input, thanks!

Try to use the browser instead the desktop application. I saw this a while ago. Did you made another purchases with PayPal recently without any problems?

No problem! You can try to delete Steam folder's cache before doing the transaction. It should have nothing to do with it, but just for discard any external possibilities...

Thank you for your help guys. I did as suggested - on PC, logged through browser, and PayPal option was there. I used my PayPal email and just made a purchase successfully.

Glad to hear! Hope you enjoy the game/DLC/program you bought!
