    @CG_Kozispoon thanks very much. Would still like to know if it's purely an online thing or if I can go to a Wal-Mart and buy a card (canada). Thanks.

    Cards bought at Wal-Mart will work. I did both online and in-store myself

    I guess the question is why they said it would work elsewhere if it doesn't.

    Come on Devs Let there be a place where by global users can access Rey buy guild google play cards. I tried from australia but was unsuccessful even using a US postal address. but it was the billing address that was unaccepted therefore my transaction was reversed. Its like no company wants to take your money.

    I just want to say how impressed I am with this marketing strategy.
    I truly mean it.
    Letting us know Rey is REQUIRED for hero event while this Google promotion is happening is brilliant
    Also would love to see this type thing every month.
    I'll buy a card every time it gives a toon I need.

    I've seen people saying that buying from Paypal worked in the UK, anyone else tried using them?

    PayPal doesn't work. Walmart ties the sale to your credit card address not the physical address you use.

    100% currently not working for Target.com, I ordered a bunch of cards from them - since Walmart has horrible order fulfillment. I just went to redeem the first one and NO SWG rewards showed in my play account -- However I got a reward for 'toca life: city the game'.

    Who do I talk to for a resolution or do we have a timeline on resolution? CG just put the list of accepted retailers up and I'm not sure if they even tested to make sure this is even working.

    Also, I did the walmart purchase last time around a few weeks ago and used the same process to redeem then. So it seems like something is broken with Target but I have no idea how to get this fixed.

    I wasn't talking about buying from Walmart using Paypal, I was talking about buying them from Paypal on the Paypal online store. https://paypal-gifts.com/uk/

    Exactly what happened to me word for word. Wanted to avoid the sketchy Wal-Mart fulfillment and went with target since that was one of the retailers they offered in kozi's link.

    I bought one from walmart.com using PayPal and I'm in Germany.

    Hah, well - Now we know. Looks like a few other people on the answers desk have the issue. No resolution yet. Going to be interesting to see how they fix this for the six cards I picked up.

    Good to know, thanks. How long did it take after purchase for the reward to show up in game?

    Ah ok, thanks. I bought one about half an hour ago and not seen anything yet, obvs did a restart etc.

    On the plus side, there's something showing up in my google play account online under 'rewards' telling me to log in to claim, so I imagine it'll come through eventually...
