I wish to pay for the Stadia trial subscription from my Google Play account balance.  How can this be done?

Hey there!
The Stadia pro trial is free. After the first month, if you used your Android phone to subscribe, it should automatically use Google Play credits to pay for the subscription.

Thank you, however there is no Android device here, only PC browser with Google Chrome.  The Stadia Pro Trial is what I wish to pay the first month, and continuing months, directly from Google Play credits and you can't do it from the browser.

Hiya @omnigorn,

I am afraid this only can be done with the Playstore.

You could try this unofficial method:

  1. Install a Chrome extension called ARC Welder to emulate Android on a Chrome instance (see https://www.gadgetsnow.com/how-to/how-to-run-android-apps-on-google-chrome/articleshow/65532288.cms)
  2. Go to the Play Store and get the Stadia app
  3. Log in to Stadia through this emulated Android experience
  4. Purchase game/Stadia Pro
  5. Exit the emulated instance and use the Chrome version of Stadia

This normally a trick to add a PayPal method but you could try this out if you want to.
