ffxiv has same amount of raid boost selling as wow does, comming from someone who has boosted A LOT (and I mean A LOOOT) in wow, and who has contacts in those circles. few of my friends who I boosted with in WoW, boost in FFxiv.

only reason wow may appear as having more boosts is due to nature of its content, mainly Mythic plus, but as far as raids go both game are on equal level.

on top of that, you can use gold to covert it into Battle net balance which you can then use to buy other bnet/activision games and items in those games, I had so much gold at the end of BfA and start of SL that I was buying 50 box packs in overwatch and hearthstone just with gold, not to mention other actiblizz games.

in ff most of boosting happens with real money, behind closed doors, but there's certain amount of boosting for gil as well.
