If i gave someone 32 in battle net cash does that cover taxes?

as title says does it cover taxes?

That totally depends on where they live - some places have little to no tax, while others charge more.

can battle net cash be used to cover the taxes? thats my question.
person i sent it too has sales tax.

Yes it can be used to cover taxes.

If you aren’t giving a surprise gift, you can always ask the user what their total cost is. Have them go through the motions of adding the stuff to a cart to see what total is after taxes are applied. Just obviously don’t have them hit the submit payment button.

ok thanks for response.

Actually, it has to cover taxes. If you gift balance for something, and the balance is not enough to cover the taxes, then they won’t be able to use it the balance at all. Blizzard does not do split payments.

Do we know why, by chance? It’s been a consistent annoyance for me.

That’s just how the system was designed long long ago in a galaxy, far far…uh Azeroth.

Only place I know you can split payments is in a supermarket or some retailers if it’s their policy to do so Blizzard can’t because of the payment systems they use. No online transactions are able to be split.

While true in the strictest sense, there are retailers like Amazon and Toast that allow you to put any store credit towards a purchase in addition to an outside payment method.

But even then it’s rare that you can use a custom amount of store credit towards a purchase, to my knowledge. Either the entire purchase is funded by credit, or all of your credit is used up before a CC. No in-between.

Amazon says hi. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of any major online retailer that can’t split payments.
