Buying Crystals With Paypal now requires Credit card

Thanks Square,

Always looking at more ways to take are money now you made it beyond frustrating as well. Might as well go buy a EA game.

What do you actually get with Crystals?

Crysta can be used to purchase items on the mogstation.


It's actually a better idea to buy a batch of Crysta if you plan on making multiple purchases in a short time, as that type of purchase could set off fraud detection from your bank.
Multiple purchases from the same company, for the same amount, in a short period could be a possible billing error, and you don't want the bank charging it back thinking it was an error.

Indeed, you most definitely do not want a charge back on your card to SE, as SE will completely suspend your account and close it forever with no hope of recovery, meaning you lose everything attached to it if a charge back is initiated, even if it was in error.

So this is probably to prevent a false positive causing a charge back from happening as you said.

My account got recovered within a few days after they closed it because of a charge back. Just contacted customer support (and payed my bill).


Also I was able to buy Crysta with Paypal (have only normal giro account attached to paypal, no credit card).

Well I use paypal to buy my subscription. Now i cant.
But basically you can buy everything with crystals.

I wish SE had gift cards that had crysta on them. Would make buying things on the mogstation SO much easier.

I think Square has way to many things to buy. Every time they add something new to the store we seem to loose more and more content that are subscription is suppose to be buying.

Given how the gear in Stormblood has been very underwhelming, I agree.

I have a credit card on my PayPal account already and that appears to be working fine. If you can't use another PayPal payment option, wouldn't that be a PayPal issue? SE didn't ask anything about a credit card before sending me to the PayPal page.
