I've never had a problem with purchases in this game and I make at least 2-3 every month. One thing that new players should be aware of is that the game is hosted thru Nutuku and Hooligapps. Nutaku is by far the better host but if you started the game thru Nutaku then your payments are tied to Nutaku. If you started the game thru Hooligapps then your payment is tied to Hooligapps. After you start playing and have registered the game be sure to write down your game 6 letter ID, email and password because if you clear the browser data or data on your phone you will need to know this infomation.As always I'm here to help new. players.
