preventing accidental in game purchases

So I made an accidental purchase by clicking on a rank up package deal while I was in the midst of ranking up a champion. I spent 320 units. This is quite annoying and avoidable. To the developers: don't insert these rank up package offers while we are ranking up champs - it is very easy to click on it by mistake as we are often in a hurry to rank up (as it is such a tedious process). If you do, you can do other things to prevent someone from accidentally hitting the "buy" button by placing it somewhere other than the lower right corner of the screen or place a pop-up informing the player that they are about to make an in game purchase before it is finalized and require them to press the button again to finalize it.
This has happened to me about 3-4 times over the years and it is a complete waste of time and entirely preventable. It also saves the support staff from having to process all these refunds.

Haven’t seen any changes yet though.
Dude make sure that your credit card is secure. Someone other than Kabam may be using it.
There is an extra “are you sure” when you DON'T want to buy these things, but no such confirmation when you do accidentally hit the spot where one of these Pop-ups appear.
ALSO would be nice when applying BOOSTS, since the Boost screen you have to scroll down, down, down, etc to get to what you want. If your SWIPE gets registered as a press instead of a swipe, then you’ve just applied some different boost than what you wanted (if the attempted swipe started on one of the APPLY buttons).
KABAM, Please ADD a CONFIRMATION box for these things.
