Also the fact that on the steam deck there is no choice to add a pin before purchases is mind boggling to me. Hand it to a kid and they could run up serious bills.
At least that one has a simple solution: delete your saved card.
As a matter of principle, I don't save my credit card number anywhere. It's a little more tedious when I make a purchase, but I've got my number memorized anyway, so it's not a big deal, and it's definitely more secure in that respect.
I think that's store driven. I recall having to input my PIN on my Deck multiple times, but there was at least a few days between each purchase.
I would prefer if it behaved like phone app stores. Have an option to ask for a pin right before completing a purchase.
It took me too long to realize you folks didn't mean pin as in pin the game to a dash board of something but a personal identification number for pin.
Do you not need to put your CCV in on most purchases? I'd say it's more often than not that it asks
I just put in a purchase and no, it did not ask me to re-enter the CCV.
Not every purchase, same if you use the PayPal option. At least not in my state in USA.
Seems pretty random when it asks or not
