Add paypal

[Malamasala]

I dont like paying more than I have too

I'm of this opinion too. No serious company would use a system like this.

Microsoft uses it for Xbox as well (one of the reasons I quit using it)

[Olor]

eh, I have thousands of crysta sitting around cause XIV ended up sucking, so in this case I will actually be able to use it. /shrugs

[Romanova]

crysta and click and buy system = stupid and I wanted to add myself to the pile saying SE wasn't thinking of their players at all with this.


As others said, the crystal doesn't even balance out evenly so I find that to be bad business of them tricking us into essentially paying more.

I tried setting up click and buy way back in the day when FFXIV first came out and it was all kinda of shady and a nightmare as my CC company blocked it for suspicious activity so I finally had to do the paypal roundabout way because I don't even trust click and buy anymore after that.

I mean, SE actually made things harder with this system, how on Earth is that good business?

Let us do direct CC payments SE, this is ridiculous.

Ok this is annoying so sorrry for the harsh tone.

click and buy is only for crysta
YES THERE IS PAY PAL
Go to the SE account part of the site to imput your credit card info.

really guys stop complsining about stiff you do not have to deal with. I'm on a fixed income and plan on using $20 dollor Ultimate pay cards. Jeez complaining over the stupidest stuff is silly do research instead of crying jeesum.

I had no issues setting up my ffxiv account. Just read and fill the stuff in slowly.

if you goto registerpayment method for credit card, it brings up click and buy, always

ur yelling at everyone else yet have you realized that your the only one that thinks that clickandbuy is only for crysta, you research, my account is already set up, and guess waht, clickandby is handling my automatic payment, something id love to avoid, though is the lesser of two evils when compared to crysta

For security reasons, I find Paypal less effective and more risky than ClickandBuy.

If you look at the fine print on both of the services, you will understand why.

[Romanova]

click and buy is only for crysta

wrong you have it backwards.

click and buy is if you want to pay by cc. you can buy crysta through click and buy OR through ultimatepay which allows you to use paypal.

so

CC= click and buy

crysta = click and buy or paypal

Click and buy is absolutely awful, and crysta sucks since you can't buy the exact amount you need, PLEASE add paypal...or better yet just handle credit cards yourself like you were before

I agree with this. Payment options (and customer service/support while we are at it) should be convenient for your clients first, then for you. If you force your clients to manually buy your product every month, or overcharge for it (forcing people to buy more crysta than is needed for each month's payment) you will be out of business.
I buy your product to relax and maybe have some fun with friends when I feel like it after work. I don't want to give out my personal sensitive info to some random company noone ever heard of just because they offered you some nice affiliate/partnership deal.
Credit card/debit card/bank transfer/Paypal - these are 4 standard payment options for any serious online company that I can think of. Any other gimmicks you come up with, I don't mind, that shouldn't be my problem tho.
As your client I want easy, secure and fair payment options. Handling my money should never be 'choosing one of lesser evils or worrying about fine prints on some third party websites I've never even heard of'. If I won't get this what is the industry standard, maybe you don't care if I am your client or not.

I don't get why anyone would try to defend this, everyone should be against this because it's garbage. The system is worse than before, why are a few people continually defending it?

Crysta is like going to the store to get groceries and the guy saying he won't give you change cause he doesn't wanna hold it in the register so he will just write down how much you had left over for next time. Click and buy are a company with a terrible reputation (and this is the only option if you don't wanna pay with crysta). Nobody should be defending this.
