    In-Game Credit Purchases / Tax

    Quick question: when purchasing in-game credits I noticed a tax of 23% gets added on to the purchase cost. Does anyone know the origin of this (it's not where I live, as goods & services tax is lower than that here)?

    Ah ha! Mystery solved. I herp, therefore I derp.

    I tried to find out what country's it was for, but a saved support domain in my email showed frontsquare (which isn't the right support e-mail, I have now realised) that seems to be a holding site / disappeared.

    Lima bean futures, ETFs or physical lima beans sitting in bushels on your living room floor?
