Gift card system

[Sqreix]

Currently, you are not able to buy GTAW Points unless you have a UCP account and if it's for yourself. Creating a system where anyone can buy GTAW Points then receive a code that could serve like a gift card would be very useful in some cases.

It sounds like it would just make OOC transfers a lot easier to launder. I'll give you $500k for 100 wp because I can't donate IRL, now you just get a "voucher" for me.

I'll bring it up in the team but I personally do not see a reason why you would want to buy world points without an UCP account. This is not "real life" currency, there is no use for WP outside of the game therefore there shouldn't be a use to buying world points without having connections (UCP account) to the game.

The point here is, if someone wants to buy you WP, they can give it to you through a code. But right now, it is designed that you can't buy someone WP without owning a UCP account for yourself.

 

I think some people here are misunderstanding the suggestion.

Okay?

We do not allow players to buy WP without an UCP account, for traceability purpose. We want to know who gifted what and make sure we can also block a player from buying WP if we need to.
