Gifting Game-Time and Zen

gamehobogamehobo Posts: 1,754 Arc User
Hey Dev Team,

I can't seem to buy Zen cards for my friends any more. Nor can I buy codes for gametime for friends of mine to play as a gold subscriber.

Can you please bring this back ASAP.

    I really don't trust third party providers.

    I'd rather come to the official website and pay for it here

    I think actual Zen cards are available in the US.
    I use ultimategamecard, which you tradein on your acct for zen. They are in US & australia & probably other countries. Look on the purchase zen list for cards and see which are at gaming stores near you.

    Correct. They are sold in stores. And here's a link showing where you can buy them at:

    https://billing.perfectworld.com/faq/store

    All it is is a scratch off code that you put into PWE's website. And you can easily give those to your friends.

    That said - yeah, you used to be able to do that, and I was disappointed to see it vanish with the merger.

    My local Target stores carry the Perfect World Zen Cards. Just as Somebob describes, you scratch off the back and there's a code. I've purchased 2-3 of the $10 cards so far and never had a problem.

    The Target site lists the $20 version that I've also seen in-store:

    Thank you for the external links.

    I will look into goin to ****ing Target.. As a San Franciscan I do not look forward to trying to find a conglomerate chain store in order to support a medium size business.

    Just seems to me PWE/Cryptic is losing out on my revenue I am willing to spend on friends. My account itself does not earn them income because I have one character and do not need the hundreds of costumes and travel powers etc that are available in the C-Store. If they intend on getting revenue from me it will be in the form of direct sales to me for my friends' accounts.

    Lucky you guys, we don't sell them here as far as I'm aware (but ClubPenguin is wtf get out)...we have Asda which is like the weird English baby of Wal-Mart, they should have some sent from WM's stock :rolleyes:

    I want to get some ZEN for my cousin who's started playing and I don't want to mess about with logging into accounts just to buy some for her. What about bringing back the old Virtual Giftcards in ZEN :confused:
