Exact funds?

Hi,
Just wanted to ask has the option to add exact funds from vita been taken off?
I have definately added exact funds for some vita games in the past, I even checked the e-mails confirming I did.
If its been taken off, I'm suprised it hasnt been publicised as much, and its such an annoyance to buy add more funds than needed and am angered its been taken off!

Please use plain text.

Re: Exact funds?

I've never seen an add exact funds on the PS3 or Vita.

If I don't have funds, it either adds the correct amount needed to buy the game automatically or asks me to add funds in mutliples of £5

Re: Exact funds?

Ah, perhaps that is it. I just wondered ever since I bought tabletop tanks, I accidentally added £5 instead of just the amount needed and noticed I couldnt add exact funds after that.
Thanks for replying!

Exact funding is still available under certain circumstances.

If your wallet balance is below a certain threshold when you go to checkout new content in the PlayStation®Store, it will automatically calculate the required funds you need to add to your wallet in order to complete the transaction.

The calculation is done so that your wallet equals 0 once the transaction has completed.

 

Total Cost of Transaction - Wallet Balance - Funds Required to Complete Transaction = 0


 

I believe the threshold is below 10, but I will need to confirm this.

 

 

For example if your wallet balance is 8 and you go to purchase a new game from the PlayStation®Store for 25, the Store should caculate an option for you to add 17 in addition to the standard funding amounts.
