Maybe webmoney too?:D

That' s very nice and thx for adding new payment options although the adding of Credit Cards are not helpful for me. The obligation to use Credit Cards at Monebookers are my main problem. As a lot of German users, unfortunately I do not use any Credit Card with good reason.

As I mentioned out above:  if I wanted (or better: could) pay via CC, I could buy my codes via Moneybookers. That' s why I asked for payment options where no Credit Cards are required. But thx again for the quick reply and best wishes for this nice game. I really would love to try it out for a few month.  Hopefully in the near future more payment options (with no need of Credit Cards) will be added. Maybe I'll find another way till then.

Shattered Crystal offers a very wide range of payment methods, feel free to look them up.

I don't use PP because of many problems I had with their support. In fact I do not trust them anymore and I know a lot of people who don' t want to use Paypal anymore, too. Of course it it hard for such a small project as Perpetuum to implement "expensive" payment providers. On the other hand more payment methods means more possible customers. It' s a question of cost-benefit ratio whether to offer more payment options which costs a bit more "transaction fees" or to get more customers.

I did not say that Paysafecard isn't used in other countries... but in my experience it is not very wide spread in several countries.

In addition, Paysafecard is mostly suited for a "lower age" community not having access to bank accounts or credit cards. So if you ask me, Perpetuum's main audience should be somewhat different.

In a casual game like Farmville the payment methods mainly used are CC (incl. Paypal etc.), mobile payments and prepaid cards (Paysafecard etc.)
In a MMOG the main payment methods are CC, Bank Transfer and own prepaid cards (Gametime cards) although GTC are only available for larger scaled games because of the need of a good distribution...

So as of any MMO that I know of a foreign prepaid card would rather destroy the possibility of an own prepaid card system in the future.

Of course you are right saying that more payment methods will get you a wider range in accessing players and to reach this aim AC should implement several other payment methods. All I say is that this is something for the next few months after finding a publisher who pushes large scaled marketing campaigns into the game to get the game where it belongs.
In fact most of the publishers (not only EA or whatnot) are already working together with several payment providers making it much easier for a company like AC to get better offers for the several payment methods.

Until then, the given payment methods should be enough to reach about 80-90% of all the players interested in Perpetuum after playing the trial.

found a solution for the first month:D.

sad....it seems shatteredcrystal is sold out. Same problem here, cant use even one of the payment options. Something like Click&Buy would be nice.

The credit care options are all pretty bizarre and weird to non-europeans though. Never heard of most of them, paypal are ghastly and the JCC one is very eurocentric and demands securedbyvisa but links me to the EU version of the same (and I'm pretty sure I haven't set it). Shattered crystal is both using paypal and wants to call me (even though I'm not in the US).

Please put the game on steam and let me buy game-time through their f2p system. Their billing is painless and I trust them.

Would love to see >Ideal< in that list.

H2O:

Paypal has the option to attach a bank account, so you don't need a CC for it.
