It's simple. We will use a Custom Code Injection script that changes the timezone of our browser whenever we make a new order on G2A. As soon as we are redirected to the payment page, our timezone will change, which will result in our order being marked as "Expired" on G2A's payment processor - Bitbay. However, the order will not be marked as expired on G2A's side. If we pay for the products,the order will be successfully processed and delivered by G2A, but the money will be instantly refunded to our wallet by Bitbay if it’s a high value transaction (over 0.0015 BTC)
Here is a summary of the process:
1. Install the Google Chrome extension Custom Code Injection.
2. Install a script that changes your browser's timezone after making an order on G2A.
3. Create a new order on G2A and pay for the products with Bitcoin.
4. Claim your products (the order will be successfully processed by G2A).
5. Wait a few minutes for a refund from Bitbay (Bitbay is a Bitcoin payment processor for G2A. They willrefund your money because the order is marked as "Expired" on their side due to the timezone conflict
Important: Please read this or it won't work.
Keep in mind that Bitbay will only refund your expired order if it is above 0.0015 BTC. Any lower amount is not prioritized by their refund system and will require you to contact G2A's support to get a refund. This will result in your request being REJECTED, as they will find out that the order was already processed by them (you have received the products). If you use any amount higher than 0.0015 BTC, it will be automatically refunded without problems. To make this work, you must add products to your cart that are worth at least 0.0015 BTC in total. It could be one or multiple products - it doesn't matter. There are no limits on the maximum worth of your cart
Important: If you get any errors while trying to make an order, check the last page of this page for possible solutions.
STEP BY STEP VIDEO TUTORIAL
Edit: I have received multiple questions asking if this script will work with other payment methods. The answer is no. If you want to use this method, you must use Bitcoin. It's not hard to buy crypto nowadays, so it shouldn't be a problem
Important note: Some products may have the Bitcoin option disabled. In that case, you should try adding other items to your cart or trying with lower prices of a single product but increased number of products. Sometimes adding at least 2 products to your cart fixes this problem, even if the option wasn’t available for just 1 product in the cart.
PURCHASE TUTORIAL
⭐ Go to https://www.g2a.com/ and add some products to your cart. For example, I will get a $500 Amazon gift card
⭐ Insert your gmail address, and click "Continue to payment".
Important: USE GMAIL, other emails like temporary emails could be blacklisted by g2a and you can experience some errors that won’t let you place an order.
⭐ If G2A asks you to create an account before placing an order, simply select "Continue with Google" and sign in with your Google account. This is the easiest and fastest method. When I attempted to register an account using a temporary email, I encountered an "expired link" error and couldn't complete the process.
Sometimes, creating an account is not necessary, and you won't be asked to do so. In such cases, you can simply skip this step and proceed to the next one
⭐ Now choose Bitcoin. Sometimes the "Bitcoin" option is not visible. In that case, just click on "Show more methods" at the bottom of the list, and you should see this payment option as well. Then click "Pay with Bitbay" or “Pay with Bitcoin”
⭐ Now you will be redirected to the payment page with payment details (address,amount and qr code) and if the script is working correctly, you should see this alert
⭐ Now simply pay for the products by sending Bitcoins to the address displayed in your order
⭐ Once you pay for the order, just wait for 1 confirmation in the blockchain. As soon as your transaction gets 1 confirmation in the blockchain (it shouldn't take longer than 15 minutes), you will receive an email from G2A with your purchased products
Now click "Confirm payment" and you will see this message:
⭐ It usually takes from 1 to 15 minutes to get your money refunded by Bitbay. I sent the payment at 5:11 AM and was refunded 10 minutes later (it only depends on how quickly your payment gets confirmed in the blockchain)
And… this is what I received in my email:
Which is literally a free $500 gift card since my payment was refunded, but the product was sent to my email anyway
Possible Errors:
If you can't see payment methods, or if you can't "Continue" to see the Bitcoin address, amount, and you see the "Something went wrong" message or anything similar, it means that either your IP/email/session/browser fingerprint has been banned. In that case, you should first try:
1) Clearing your cookies and try again, if error persists
2) Clearing cookies again and using a different email on checkout thistime. If the error persists
3) Changing your IP address (try using a VPN - I personally use NordVPN) +take actions from Step 2 again
