Valve's Steam platform is currently facing issues with PayPal transactions, affecting users' ability to make purchases in certain currencies. As of early July 2025, PayPal's acquiring bank has stopped processing transactions for currencies beyond six designated ones: EUR, CAD, GBP, JPY, AUD, and USD. Valve has communicated a hope to reinstate PayPal support for other currencies in the future but has not provided a specific timeline. Users are advised to explore alternative payment methods or use Steam Wallet codes. The situation has raised speculation about a potential link to Valve's recent game censorship policies, but no concrete evidence supports this connection. Users can still purchase games using credit or debit cards, bank transfers, and local payment methods, as well as redeeming Steam Wallet codes.
