Buying games
Buy a game
On a paid game's store page, choose Buy:
- Pay by card: you are sent to Stripe Checkout. The price, tax for your location, and a card processing fee are shown before you pay. After paying you come back to a page that confirms the purchase.
- Pay from balance: the page shows a quote with the price, tax, and total. Confirm it and the total is taken from your balance at once, with no card fee. If the total changes before you confirm (for example, the price changed), you are asked to confirm again.
Either way you get a license for the game, listed in your Library.
Donate
Free games that accept donations show a Donate box. Pick an amount from $1.00 to $500.00 and pay by card or from your balance. Donations do not change your access to the game.
Download
Downloads need a verified email. Paid games also need a license. Download buttons on store pages and in your library give you a short-lived link (5 minutes) to the file.

Playtime
Your library shows how long you have played each game, as reported by the Blazium Games app while a game runs. Playtime matters for refunds: a purchase stops being refundable after 2 hours of play. See Refunds.
Purchase history
Every purchase, from a card or the balance, is listed in your wallet transactions.
