I recently bought FF14 a day or so ago (on ps3, a hard copy), and after installing it, registering the code, connecting my psn to my SE account (Finally) and trying to get into the game's client, i was greeted by this:

In order to play FF14:ARR, you must first purchase the digital download from the PSS or register the product code

Can someone explain to me what Im doing wrong here?

What status does it show in the Mogstation?

Inactive. And I have no clue how to activate it :I

The instructions in the manual really should have been more detailed...

Bump, because I REALLY need some help...

When you log in to Mog Station and select "Account Service" from menu, what does it say under Account Type? Also, what options do you see under "The following services are available for this service account:"? On my account, it has an option "Add PS3 Service" there. :)

Check the CD case again. There is a "Serial Code/Code De Serie" and a "Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Registration Code." I say just make sure you input the "Registration Code" to get the free month.
On MogStation you can go "Account Services" -> "Enter Bonus Code" and input it there.

I hope it helps.

I have my psn connected to my SE account, using the code on the red-black-white paper... Not sure if It worked or not...

i hadnt seen anythign like that (bonus code), but I'll keep an eye out for it.

Can you see option "Add New Service Account" under Account Services? When I click that it asks me for the game registration code, I think that's where you should add your game.

Isnt that for the PC version?
Im on the ps3.
(in speaking of that, why doesnt Square just allow ps3 players to input the product code directly on Mogstation...?)

Yes, sorry, my bad. :( I haven't registered PS3 version myself so unfortunately have no idea what you should do. You can always contact their support center though.
