why does paysafe want an address when registering. i can't find any reason that they need it. they don't seem to send any paperwork home such as banks do, nor do they do any security stuff with your address. why do they need addresss. does anyne know? i'd prefer a minimalist registration.

How about not registering at all!? You don't need an account there to use paysafecard. Put your game in the cart, choose paysafecard as payment option, wait for the redirect to paysafecard.com and type in the PIN from your paysafecard. That's it. No registration needed.

ok that seems much easier. what if i want to dump some cash into wallet. is it just as easy? i'm thinking gamewise, i'd have outstanding cash on paysafe and will have to do the process each time.

Look for these 2 FAQ:

Why is it important for me to correctly enter my personal details during registration?

Which documents can I use as proof of residence?

You mean GOG wallet? Shouldn't be any different than with games, since both are just a purchase you have to pay for. Typing a 16 digit PIN isn't that much of a "process". If you have a num pad on your keyboard, it should take less than 10 seconds (less than 5 when you've done it a few times and start to type the numbers without looking at your keyboard).

They have the same obligations as banks and would hold a financial services licence or similar in each country they operate in.
