Gametime cards or PayPal are pretty much the only remaining options. And the FFXIV gametime cards are scarcly available outside of major cities. Making it a bit of a hassle for those players to pay for FFXIV right now. Obviously not impossible, but far from consumer friendly.
    That's very surprising. I guess not all countries are up with the play. I thought my country, which does offer debit cards, was a little behind.... regardless, based on what the OP has said previously, they don't have this problem.

    From a google search it looks like the Dutch alternative is the Mastercard owned Maestro debit cards, which are the same thing as my Visa debit card. I wonder if that's considered a Mastercard? Because the mog station supports Mastercard debit cards.
