I'm looking for ways to buy the game from the website without setting up an account at Paypal, Amazon, or Google.
In the past, Paypal was willing to let you do that; the link was not easy to find under the giant "login here" form that took most of the page, but it worked fine. Supply your credit card info, and voilà, payment done. In particular, I've bought all my Humble Bundles this way.
I've tried buying FTL through Paypal, but now their site has a form where you input your credit card info, but also more personal details than I remember inputing in the past, and small text at the bottom that suddenly makes you realize you are creating an account with them.
So, does anyone know if it is still possible to pay through Paypal without an account? Are there other ways? I'm pretty sure Amazon and Google require an account and have never offered an option to pay without one.

Re: [SOLVED] How to pay by credit card without a Paypal acco
I've tried paying again with Paypal, paying close attention at every step. It turns out that when you initially land on the page, you are facing the USA form (fully translated in French), including the link to pay without an account. When you switch the country to France (where I reside), the form changes and becomes a mandatory account creation form. This must have changed recently.
Ah well, I've set up an account with Paypal.
