No, you're paying $1,000 to Square Enix to buy their special payment credits.

Then you spend some of those credits every month to pay for a subscription to Final Fantasy 11. Do you think that, after you buy crysta, they don't track where that crysta is spent? Leaving that kind of gap in their business intelligence would be a massive fail.
