Not sure how you mean it?
1) For example a game is usually sold at 50usd but somehow is discounted at 10usd.
If you buy it at 50usd the percentage of blue coins you get is based on 50usd.
If you buy it at 10usd, the percentage of blue coins you get is based on 10usd (so no getting the 50usd blue coins percentage for a 10usd buy)
2) If you meant that if a game is usually sold at 50usd but is now at 10usd and you have 15 usd blue coins equivalent, you can use your blue coins to buy it at 10usd without issue yes
One restriction I know about blue coins is that if you pay with them, you have to have the whole amount available in blue coins.
So you can't use blue coins to top off a cash purchase or use cash to top off a blue coins purchase
Still better than nothing really, I buy usually without thinking about the blue coins systems and it does sometimes let me buy small or heavily discounted games.
After checking you get 5% of the amount you buy on the site added to your Blue Coins.
And you get a bit more Blue Coins when rating, reviewing game etc.
Some games also have some special offers on Blue Coins (like Uprising had when i bought it), pre-orders also have sometimes etc.
Oh ok, that explains it.1) For example a game is usually sold at 50usd but somehow is discounted at 10usd.

I initially thought that blue coins were sort of like credit card points or something.
