Want to use steam wallet funds and a credit card to buy a game.

I want to use my 1 dollar and some odd change from my steam wallet and then use my credit card to pay for the rest. How can i do this? I only want the balance to go on my credit card as i don't use this card that offten and don't want to run it up.

You are wrong. It will automatically choose your steam wallet and if you dont hve enough money in ur steam wallet it will ask u for debit/credit card info.

This is not right.

When buying the game use your Steam Wallet first. Steam will then give you a 2nd payment option to cover anything else.

You should see this when paying with Steam Wallet.

"In the event your Steam Wallet balance doesn’t cover the full cost of this transaction, you’ll be asked to cover the remaining balance due with a secondary payment method. "

Mine automatically tries to use my remaining wallet balance and then my card. Quite annoying to change everytime to be honest.

Do you have wallet funds?

Could you make your own thread?

Edit: Nvm... I see the other necro'd thread.

You can only use wallet funds to purchase from the Market.
