Kay, first step. Second step, not having to buy any currency.
Usually microtransactions have such a low real price that it wouldn't make sense to make the bank transaction for just a single skin or whatever. I think you'd just end up with bundles instead where there's a single thing you actually want with a bunch of bullshit attached to justify a higher asking price.
