Most players in the EU or NA will be unaware of this.

Currently, Australian players have only one method of payment for FFXIV billing services once Square Enix begins charging monthly account fees. We are required to pay by Credit Card in the Euro currency.

This means that not only will Australian's without access to credit cards be hindered in playing this game in the future, but we must also pay substantially more for the same services due to the exchange rates and the associated currency conversion fees banks place upon us. Depending on which bank one is with, Australians will thus have to pay up to 1.5 times as much for this game as US players.

We also have no access to Square Enix Crysta.

I would like to ask Square Enix to please implement alternative payment options for Australians. We would like to be able to pay in our native currency or, at the very least, be able to pay in American dollars instead in light of the much better exchange rate we have with the U.S.
