Players can load money directly into their Epic Games account for quick and easy payments via the launcher or web store when logged in. Players are offered to add funds to the wallet in pre-set denominations ($5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 USD equivalents).
"The wallet balance can be used to purchase most products and services available in the store today. In addition to purchases, players can also request refunds directly to their wallet, even if the original payment was from a non-wallet source," states the announcement. |Wallet balance and details can be viewed at any time via player account management settings. If the wallet has insufficient funds for a transaction, players can use a second payment method to cover the additional amount without needing to top-up their wallet balance."
The team also noted that the Epic Games wallet will have a maximum balance of $500 USD ($600 CAD) when the 2-factor authentication (2FA) is turned on. Accounts without 2FA activated will have a limit of $150 USD ($200 CAD).
