06-03-2013, 12:42 AMZenakuThey said a while back that they going to release time cards i think a lot of people buy time card vs using there CC. I think the most are kids due to there parents not wanting to use there CC. So this is a great move on SE part to bring in more younger fans into the final fantasy world.Quote:

It's on the official french Square Enix boutique, so yes, it's a thing.
We'll have to see if it'll be a thing in NA too, as Australia is considered Europe for some weird corporate reasons, so for now it's a thing only for Europe. -

doesn't matter much if you can't get these in stores.
Also we always had this option with the ultimate game cards in the USA and something else in Japan. Don't know what the EU had. -
06-03-2013, 05:07 AMAirgetThe sad thing is, it's less about people not wanting to use credit cards, but the fact that people who had used credit cards would dispute the charges of XI subscription.Quote:

So now with online gaming that does use fees, they are placing more concrete forms of payment which can't be disputed and using more "secure" forms of credit card payments so people can't turn around and say, "oh no I never paid for this service" -

hope the USA does this, i rather not stick my debt or CC to an account if i dont have to.
it would help the people who dont have CC or debt also. sounds like extra money for SE -
06-04-2013, 11:19 AMDhalmelWe've always had the choice, you can find this in almost every 7-11, CVS, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, misc convenience store. Perfect for those with Legacy accounts as 20 dollar card = 2 months worth of Crysta points.Quote:
