Why is My Address Required for Virtual Game Item Purchases?

It's a common question why an address is needed when purchasing virtual items for a video game. The straightforward answer is that BloxBoom itself does not require or store your address for these transactions. The necessity to input your address arises from the payment processing method we use.

When you make a purchase, the payment is facilitated through a payment provider, and it's these providers who require your address. This is a standard security measure to prevent the use of stolen or fraudulent credit cards. Your address acts as a verification step, ensuring the legitimacy of the transaction.

This practice is not unique to our services; it's a universal requirement for online purchases. For security and compliance, we recommend that if you are underage or unsure about this process, you should consult a responsible adult to assist with the purchase. This ensures the safety and security of your transactions.
