I have a friend who wants to switch to my server but his parents wont let him use their credit card for it. is there any other way to pay the $25 then a credit card? Like a game card thing that you use to buy time, or mail in cash? are either of these a possible way to transfer your character?

We do not presently sell gift cards or allow cash as a method payment method for our paid character services, Jakeydk. But, you may want to consider the following options:

  • A pre-paid gift card. As pre-paid gift cards are an acceptable payment method for both our paid character services, you could purchase one of these cards for the designated amount and then give or ship it to your friend. You could also just read the pre-paid card's information over the phone to your friend and he could then input that in as appropriate, ensuring that the card is first registered online in your friend's name. Just make sure that the card has at least $1.00 USD extra for each purchase; this will account for any required verification charges.

  • PayPal. While you may not directly pay for your friend's Character Transfer through PayPal, you can transfer funds from your PayPal account to your friend's. I believe PayPal offers a one-time use "credit card" option, as well.


If you believe we should make gift cards (like the pre-paid game time codes) available, please don't hesitate to drop a line within our Suggestions Forum. :)
