Some of these payment methods look sketchy af
Furthermore, the amount of players who spend thousands of bought units on revives is very less considering the fact that only 3% of the player even spends money.
The problem has never been that revives are available infinitely but the scale on which it is available. It was entirely possible for you to either spend money or arena grinded units for how much ever revives you needed to buy. But those that actually spend that much time to do it was very less compared to the general player base size.
But when a sizable chunk of the player base farms revives and bruteforces through the hardest content in game which was meant to be grinded through slowly withing a week, it becomes a problem.
They want to keep players in game, grind, and slowly finish content. Not farm infinite revives, knock the content out in a week and then not play much.
Those that are using whatever absurd amount of units you think they use to buy revives will still play and spend time in other avenues unlike the former set of players.
The difference between content like Abyss and EOP:A due to the existence of revive farm was very visible.
Anecdotally, i didn't bother with the best champs or best strategies.i took in some champs i knew would be good and bruteforces the F out of the content and I'm no slouch. So i know for a fact that players who wouldn't have been otherwise able to do the content have bruteforces through it using farmed revives.again, it's possible that there might have been people who spend money and did it but scale is important.
And, btw, I didn’t even know CVS has their own Credit Card, just a Points/Rewards card that can apply accumulated points toward discounts on purchases (although I’ve seen Gas Stations have branded Credit Cards, so wouldn’t surprise me so many other places like Drugstores do too).
But especially strange is that you can use a GIFT CARD, a card specifically bought for the purpose of spending at the LISTED store (or restaurant, or multiple places if under the same corporate ownership, etc). The stores sell them so that whoever you give them to (or yourself) will actually buy something at that store in order to use them, and hopefully buy more than just the face value of the Gift Card they have while they are in the store.
*But now you can use a GIFT CARD at a place somewhere else other than for that store ??
I got a McDonalds Gift card, can I use it ? (lol)
As for the legality, it is. The court sided with Epic in allowing purchases outside of app stores back in late April.
What's the restriction in the store? Do you intentionally ban any country/region from shopping?
As for why no hard caps because ultimately you should never be hard locked from a content. If by slowly grinding units or collecting revives or whatever, You should be able to do all content in game. That's a philosophy they've followed for all solo quests except for the champion boss(who also is not of that same philosophy).
You said for many money isn't a limit. But as far as the game and Kabam is concerned, that limit is sufficient. Who decides that? Kabam. You can't tell them that there are too many users spamming revives because they know what that number is that's acceptable
(and no guarantee that the same offer as it is initially packaged will stay that way going forward with the same amount of revives in it, if they deem it necessary to adjust it)
Although we all know the answer for it ...

Found what I was thinking of. I don't know if this is still in effect or if this explains your issue though.

This happens when I try to log in. Is this my problem or Kabam?
Kabam would then have to do 1 of 2 things, balance each run around the 120 revives I was easily able to get, or remove that really easy source of revives. As you can imagine, they decided to follow through on the latter option.
Why is that a problem, but people spamming revives via other ways and completing the same content in a single day is not an issue?
The problem very clearly wasn't because people were completing content for free. It was because there wasn't enough people paying to complete the content
That way, they don't have to give those 30% of revenue. Good.
The price staying the same, it means Kabam make 30% more profit out of our purchases and we get....10% more units....Wait only 10% more by allowing you to get 30% more income !?!
Why don't you give us those 30% more units or even why don't you lower the price so you will get 10% of more income and us 10% more units ? lets say 83.7 US$ for an Odin of 3410 units for example !
We would be both winner by going through your store
