How to buy Riot points in League of Legends
League of Legends, known as LoL for short, is a hugely popular team-based MOBA strategy game in which two teams battle each other. Each team consists of five powerful heroes - there are up to 140 to choose from - and the aim of the game is to destroy the opponent’s base. It is currently played by around 180 million players worldwide. LoL is so popular that, in addition to daily games, official competitions, championships and professional leagues are organised. Related games, card games and music tracks have also been created. As of 2019, the game has been recognised as a fully-fledged sport in Poland.
Currencies in LoL
As any fan of League of Legends is probably aware, there are two currencies in the game - Blue Essence (BE) and Riot Points (RP). The former is awarded to players over the course of the game for completing levels, missions and other in-game achievements. The latter, however, must be purchased with their own money. Furthermore, in League of Legends RP can only be used in the game’s shop, and purchases paid for with RP do not affect performance. RP mainly enables players to obtain certain items (heroes, skins, etc.) faster and to change the summoner settings (e.g. changing name or server).
How to buy RP in LoL
The easiest way to buy Riot Points in League of Legends is through the official LoL shop, using a prepaid payment method, such as PaysafeCard.
How does PaysafeCard work?
PaysafeCard is a convenient way to pay for online purchases – such as in League of Legends - without having to connect it to your bank account. All you have to do is to buy a PaysafeCard voucher at the nearest shop. The benefit is that you do not have to provide any login, personal or card details when making a payment. In an age of numerous cyber threats, this is a smart and worthwhile solution.
PaysafeCard in League of Legends
PaysafeCard is independent of your bank account and PaysafeCard vouchers of the desired value can be purchased conveniently at a shop near you (search for shops and retailers here). During the transaction, you only enter the 16-digit code from the voucher - no bank account, payment card or other personal details. This makes them much more difficult to potentially steal or lose during or after the transaction.
