Blizzard has announced a new feature: the BattleNet Wallet. It's amazing how much progress has been made!

What is a BattleNet wallet?
BattleNet Wallet is a new feature that allows players to have funds in their account to purchase Blizzard products: World of Warcraft game time, paid services, digital versions of games, pets and mounts. With the launch of Diablo 3, players in certain regions will also be able to purchase in-game items through the auction using the funds in their balance, or earn funds by selling items.

How can I top up my BattleNet wallet?
When you are logged into your account, you will be able to add funds via credit card or various payment methods specific to your region. Please note that depending on the type of payment, it may take time to replenish the balance.

Can I withdraw funds from the balance?
No, when you top up your account or earn money through the Diablo 3 auction, you cannot withdraw funds. Wallet funds can only be used to purchase Blizzard products or auction items. In some regions, Diablo 3 players who wish to withdraw their auction proceeds will be able to do so via PayPal for an additional fee.

Will I need to top up my wallet to buy items in the Diablo 3 auction or will there be other options available?
Players will be able to purchase items either using funds in their wallet or using a number of popular methods such as a credit card, etc.

What currency will be stored in my wallet?
In general, the currency will depend on your region: in Europe, players will be able to use euros, rubles or pounds. In some regions, local currencies will be available to players. However, you will not be able to exchange currency in your wallet or use it in other regions. For example, a player with a balance in US dollars will not be able to buy items in an auction that works in another currency. More details will be available in the future.

Will there be limits on the amount of funds in the wallet?
Yes, limits will be announced later.

Will it be possible to transfer funds from one wallet to another or give them away?
Funds cannot be transferred. We are still considering the possibility of donating funds to another wallet, but we do not promise anything.

How long can the funds be kept? Can they “disappear?”
Depending on local laws, we may reset the balance if it has not been used for three years.

Will I be able to track purchases made with my wallet?
Yes, this feature will be available.

Will it be possible to use the wallet to automatically pay for a WoW subscription?
No, but you can buy timecards directly.

What payment methods will be available for replenishing the BattleNet wallet?
All currently supported payment methods in your region will be available for wallet replenishment.

Will it be possible to use the wallet in combination with other payment methods?
Yes, to purchase certain services, such as paid services in World of Warcraft. However, mixing payment methods is not allowed in the Diablo 3 Auction House.

Will there be a fee for using the wallet?
No, Blizzard will not charge a commission for purchasing Blizzard Products using the Wallet. However, transactions in the Diablo 3 auction will be charged a certain percentage.

Where can I see the account balance?
You will be able to see your account balance in BattleNet Account Management.

Is the BattleNet wallet available for Diablo 3 beta testers?
In the Diablo 3 beta test, we are testing wallet functionality. Players received a limited amount of Test Dollars, which are used for auction deals. These invoices reflect what the BattleNet wallet might look like in the future.

So, in fact, this is a full-fledged version of a virtual account. I am not embarrassed by the fact that it is impossible to withdraw money from the account, firstly, as it is written in the FAQ, this is a temporary restriction, and secondly, is this the main thing? After all, it turns out that now every player will be able to safely buy items in the Blizzard store without overpaying intermediaries for them (sometimes twice!) Yes, you can still buy items there, but you need a credit card, and judging by the guide for an annual subscription, credit cards there are not so many players from ru-servers.

And I'm more and more inclined to think that the real money auction will someday come to WoW. The technical base is already there. Blizzard will test the level of commissions on Diablo 3: if it turns out to be high enough to cover unsubscribing, then in the addon after Pandaria we may see something similar =)
